I ahve been looking into books about photography and would love to learn a bit more about composition. With a Lomo, a Holga and my dad’s old SLR at home this book would help me make a head start. I do love the visualisations on the sample pages.
Happy Holidays from Chichester!
Would love to win this, looks a useful and well-presented book!
Photography has been a hobby of mine for a few years now, this book would really help my to take shoot some new material!
Although I’m a graphic designer myself, I’m very fond of photography because I think good photos can lead to great designs. Count me in please and greetings from Athens, Greece. :)
This book looks really helpful, I would like to learn more about the composition of the photograph rather than obsessing with the camera settings. This book giveaway is such a good idea!! :)
I love looking at photos, but I also love taking photos especially of food, landscape and all the fascinating details in between (like a carpet of autumn leaves or a ray of light on a surface). I only have a trusty point-and-shoot camera and my skills could use help. Knowledge surely can produce something out of the barest equipment, so here I am ready to get hold of this book and learn!
There´s always something new to learn in photography, and what a great motivational tool a new book is! That would be a perfect christmas gift.. for me. :)
Please!!!!!
Photography for me has been a documenting work related hobby that is rapidily becoming the passion of itself. Of course like all design & art, composition is the basis. I love the sneak peek of the pages of book in competition and would love to be able to win for a full read and have in my reference library.
