Recommended Reading

I'm sure that most of you know that a list of recommended reading appears in the galleries of Four Forty-Six Photography on the Links page. However, I have just added another book to that list and thought it might be worth posting the complete list here for reference. I have found each of these books to be very helpful in how I have developed my photographic techniques.

The Art of Outdoor Photography: Techniques for the advanced amateur and professional by Boyd Norton

Complete Photography Manual by Ailsa McWhinnie

The Photography Bible by Daniel Lezano

Succeed in Landscape Photography by Mark Lucock

John Shaw's Landscape Photography by John Shaw

Capturing The Landscape With Your Camera by Patricia Caulfield

National Audubon Society Guide To Landscape Photography by Tim Fitzharris

Wilderness Photography by Boyd Norton

North Carolina Waterfalls: a hiking and photography guide by Kevin Adams

Waterfalls of the Blue Ridge: a hiking guide to the cascades of the Blue Ridge Mountains by Nicole Blouin, Steve Bordonaro, and Marilou Wier Bordonaro

How to Photograph Cars by James Mann

Each of these books comes highly recommended as they are ones that I have used for reference for both my own photography, and for many of the Tips and Tricks that I have done here in Photo Trek. These are not your typical The Joy of Photography type books, and are not the ones that are talked about ad nauseam on all of the photography forums. These books are all wonderful resources primarily aimed at the landscape photographer (except for the last book, of course). However, many of them cover other aspects of photography as well. Regardless of the types of photography you are interested in, these books will have many of the basics covered.
