Book Review: if you love photography then youll love this book!
Summary: 5 Stars
simply one of the best photography books ive read, beautiful photos, lots of technical and amusing anecdotes, and lots to learn and love!Book Review: Excellent book that lives up to the back cover
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an excellent book that lives up to the phrase on the back of the book. It contains excellent illustrated images as well as instructions how to perform the shots. The book is an excellent choice for beginner and experienced shooter. Like many other books, it stirs up the creative thinking.
Joe McNally presents various methods to create interesting shots. Although many of us might never have the opportunity to shoot the same images in the book, we might be in a situation to combine various techniques taught. After owning the book for a short period of time, I put to use many of the techniques from the book.
It is a keeper compared to other books that I buy and sell immediately.
Book Review: Inside Information
Summary: 5 Stars
Joe McNally is a well-known professional photographer and photojournalist. His images have been seen in National Geographic, Sports Illustrated, ESPN magazine, Life magazine, Time magazine and many others. Between a very demanding job, teaching workshops, an Internet blog and being a father - this guy has no free time to spare.
So, how would you like to see some of his best work, hear the story behind the shot and some of the details of HOW he got the shot? Just pick up a copy of his book "The Moment it Clicks", published by New Riders.
In it, Joe goes over many of his images you will recognize from the pages of Life magazine and other publications and tells a short story about the shot, the subject and the problems. He even goes into some detail about how he set up lighting, got the right timing, or tricked the subject into NOT posing.
This is a rare opportunity to learn from one of the greatest photojournalists around, for just the price of a coffee table book; and it proves to be so much more valuable, with all of the technical details. Highly recommended, by little `ole me, and MANY others!
Book Review: A good read with lots of useful info
Summary: 4 Stars
While it does not quite measure up to the promotional blurb, this book is a great read and does in fact contain plenty of practical, useful information, and many excellent photos.Book Review: Two words, buy it.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the book you should have if you've ever wondered, or are learning to become a pro photo-journalist. So many behind the scenes tid-bits and advice that I think this should be required reading for any visual communications program. Will you learn the specifics of lighting? No. But this is not the book to get if you need to learn begining lighting. This is the book to get to understand what lighting is about.
