5 out of 5 stars Inspires me to get out and shoot   June 9, 2008
I first read Peterson's Understanding Exposure: How to Shoot Great Photographs with a Film or Digital Camera (Updated Edition), and while it's filled with useful information, techniques, and photos, this one gets me much more excited and inspired to get out and shoot. Peterson's enthusiasm for photography and teaching is obvious, and contagious. Once I got a basic handle of the technicals off photography, I find myself asking, "Okay, what do I shoot now?" Peterson's book demonstrates that you can find compelling images all over the place.


5 out of 5 stars Through the Looking Glass - of a Viewfinder!   May 24, 2008
Bryan Peterson's book,Learning to See Creatively, is an extraordinary treasure trove of photographic techniques and tips. The book helps the photographer to step out of the regular view and discover a whole new angle on life, be it from below or above. The photos inside the book are awe-inspiring, and show Peterson for the photographic genius he is. There is so much to learn from this book, everyone should keep it as reference book. And Peterson does a great job of teaching without getting boring, keeping a sense of humor the whole time. I would recommend not only this book, but all of Peterson's books, to any photographer who wants to improve his photos, no matter what skill level.


5 out of 5 stars VERY SIMPLE AND INFORMATIVE   May 23, 2008
Learning to See Creatively: Design, Color & Composition in Photography (Updated Edition)

A wonderful translation of the thoughts of a Master Photographer and Artist in to simple words. This book can be an ideal tool for a Novice to a Pro alike. With simple words and ample examples Bryan has opened many avenues for one to use the Grey Matter in the Brain and come out with wonderful images from every scene and sight which lies in front. I also purchased 'Understanding Exposure' which is another masterpiece by itself. Both these books were wonderful and I have just ordered ' Understanding Shutterspeed and also Beyond Portraiture by the same author and just cant wait to get them and read them. I have become an ardent student of Bryan through these books, and Thanks to Amazon for getting them in my reach, as the place I live in, I dont have any book shops selling them. Thanks, Kris



4 out of 5 stars Interesting poits of view   May 15, 2008
The autor shows his way to be "creative" in the photo stock agencyes world.
It's not so simple to understand and use all his tips, but it is a great beginning point.

I found this book and the other book ( Understanding Exposure ) on PDF file and I read these books, then I purchased the two books for my library because these books are very easy to understand and also great reference in photography.
