"Hot Shoe Diaries" by Joe McNally is one of the best photography books I've ever read. He shows you the progress shots and thought process leading up to a final image. Well written, each chapter covers a different shot and usually a different technique.
Ben i'll have to check that out! Thanks....
Yes, a very cool book.
I will be getting this
Hi guys!
I actually got a copy of Nikon D90 for dummies... I know it's not legal, but better than nothing I thought. Seems to be very useful. I have uploaded it to rapidshare. Here is the link: http://rapidshare.com/files/411029660/Nikon.D90.For.Dummies.pdf.
Hope many of the new comers will benefit.
Regards,
Vijay
