BOOKS I HAVE USED IN THIS COURSE

Pocket guide to wildlife,a small reference book that fits into my camera bag which i use for quick identification of birds and insects

Again a small book filled with good information on all birds in Britan and Europe

Collins complete photography course by John Garrett and Graeme Harris a cracking book to get you around the different setings on your camera and some novel ideas for you to photos in different ways.

A book i have had for years  but is a magnificent reference book not only does it go in to detail about wildlife and plants and insects but anything about how the wildlife affects Britain.

The Readers Digest Book  of Britain's Wildlife and Flowers ,a book that goes through everything from insects,reptiles,birds,flowers,carnivores,fish and much much more filled with fantastic detailed information in a layman way.If its still in print BUY IT.

Wow  what can i say about Guy Edwardes a fantastic photographer ,in his book he tells you what equipment he uses and the settings he used to capture the shot and believe you me they are awesome . Probably the best info book i have used

Finally 3 books by Scott Kelby packed with brilliant imagers and tips on how to do it yourself which covers everything including weddings,sport photography,portrait,macro and landscape plus a lot more .Well worth a look as its easy to follow with clear and precise ease of how to get the shot you want.

  1. Hi
    Now you can see for yourself how much research you are actually doing to support your work.
    This is all valid and important, can you link in some actual articles or images from these books that you have been inspired or influenced by
