Art & Photography Books

Kudos to Bryan Peterson on the release of this long-awaited update to his 1990 classic, Understanding Exposure: How to Shoot Great Photographs. I've been recommending the original edition of this book to my DIGITAL photography students and on-line...

I bought this thinking it would have a lot of in depth information about exposure. However I went through the book within 30 minutes and did not find anything new or quite interesting. It's a very basic book in understanding the importance of ISO,...

i bought this book partially because many ppl recommended it. I have to say it was disappointing. The pictures were fantastic however the information was sparse. There's like 5-6 pages worth of information the rest of the few hundred pgs are...

This is a good book for all DSLR users, whether you are a pro or an amateur.

This is one of the book I would read over and over again. The way it's organized allows you to read any topic (or page) without any sequence. Of course,...

While this book covered many interesting topics there wasn't much depth and I thought the author was glib and less than professional. Of the many photography books I own this is one of the few I will probably pass on to others or trade in at a...

Its Loaded with pictures from the series on DVD set. At first I found the DVD set to be terribly expensive for my pocketbook (limited income), and while looking for this DVD set, I came across this book and ordered it INSTEAD, thinking it would...

Copy is interesting; photography is terrible. A disappointment as a companion piece to the excellent DVD series.

I was a little disappointed with this book. I have been watching the series on TV and the photography is brilliant. The book is not the best quality and the photographs are missing the brillance you would have expected with the quality of the...

This book makes a person not only realize but truly believe that there is true pain out there, not just the pain that lives deep within.

There was nothing earth shatteringly secret in any of these post cards; just ordinary stories, not very moving.

I find the book hard to read and too detailed to be of much help.

very entertaining in many ways. it's always interesting to read what other people think no one else will ever be able to. we all have secrets...and i would think writing them and getting them out there might help some of the people holding it insid

I'm sorry, but this book is not worth anything! I regret that I got it. I wasted my gift card on it. The website is much better. It's free to look at and they change every week. Most of the secrets that I saw was the same ones that were on the...

Lew French master craftsman and writer of Stone by Design is a true artist. Ever since his first project Mr. French has been creating memorable pieces of art. The book is exquisitely written with photographs that complement the text nicely.

The only reason I watch Project Runway is to see Tim Gunn "make it work". The only blogs I read on the Project Runway web site are those by Tim Gunn. His blogs are so insightful into what transpired on each episode. Tim is an incredibly...

I have the highest respect for Tim Gunn from his appearances on Project Runway. Based on his insights in the show, I was expecting a more unisex approach to style, at least based on his first couple of chapters where he relates his personal style...

I must admit, that as student entering Parsons for the upcoming fall semester, I was eager to read what the notable Tim Gunn had to say. Everyone loves him on Project Runway and his expertise is respected. I found that while the topics were very...

This book is great! i love it. I just purchased it today. It not only has pictures of the orginal broadway cast, but a few of the replacement cast members and some of the tour cast. There are no photos of the chicago cast, but it does mention...

Though it is a beautiful book, it's content is somehow disapointing. First, Idina Menzel is missing in too many pages, just as Kristin Chenoweth. Okay, they're not in the show anymore, but if "you don't loose sight of who you are", you'll remember...

I got this book for a good friend of mine, who, like me, is a big fan of Wicked. I'm not the candle carrying-Idina worshipping type, but I like it alot.
Anyways,
I was somewhat impressed and somewhat disappointed by the book. read full review | report as inappropriate
