Wildlife Photography Workshop, The

Purchased this for a friend and he said it is really good. He is just starting out in photographing birds and it is proving very helpful. A good resource to have when you are learning.

This was purchased as a birthday gift for my brother-in-law. When he got it, he was really delighted, as he is a keen photographer and birdwatcher. I looked through the book before I gift wrapped it, and wished I'd bought it for myself. The book is very informative and also an easy and interesting read, with stunning photographs at every turn. I think I'll have to start saving to buy my own copy of this fantastic book.

This is a really informative book for budding wildlife photographers and encompasses alot of the diverse aspects of this type of photography. This is the first book I have seen that tries to put across a workshop in a book. In an age were you can spend some serious money to go on a course this is great value and a good read. It cover all the fundamental aspects and intermediate attributes budding wildlife photographers require. You should not though expect this book to cover how to use basic camera skills.

Informative, clearly presented and very accessible to read. Good examples given throughout.

Present for my photography loving husband- perfect for beginners, sometimes technical details, richly illustrated, explains things step by step. A great buy.

I come from a rather small village close to the mountains in Slovakia, where I can enjoy outdoor activities, so landscape and wildlife photography is the thing to get into. In the past I received as birthday present different book by Ross, The Landscape Photography Workshop which he co-wrote with Mark Bauer. Since I did enjoy reading it and found it really helpful there was no question in my mind about purchasing more of his books. The Wildlife Photography Workshop as all of Ross titles covers in the first chapters all the necessary basic background including equipment, exposure, composition and lighting with easy to follow and easy to remember photography terminology. It is written in way as not to bore or scare you off, because of the technical nature. (If you are interested in a more in-depth explanation of photography technicalities you may consider reading stuff like "basic photography by ava publishing" [Composition, Exposure, Lighting etc]). After the necessary introduction this book goes on to explain how to tackle close-up photography, birds, mammals and plant life. It will advise on technique plus handy tips and it also points out what you should anticipate while you about your "business". The best part of the book are the creative assignments that gives you gentle nudge to explore and be creative. Thank you for all your hard work and great way to share your knowledge Ross and Ben!

This is a great book! 5 star for the book and one star for the delivery. Stated package left in safe location at the delivery address, but actually left at a completely different address.

A great book to read. Nicely put together
