One of the finest new books on digital photography, this is about the art of digital photography more than the technology. Zuckerman (Shooting & Selling Your Photographs), who has been a professional photographer for nearly 40 years, here compiles 15 critical steps to achieving great pictures. He covers methods for choosing subjects, the use of color for impact, capturing motion, one-of-a-kind perspectives, and thinking as the lens sees. The book is filled with stunning landscapes, portraits, and abstract images. Other books, like David D. Busch's Digital SLR Pro Secrets, focus more on equipment. Zuckerman's title will outlast the rapid changes in the digital field.
