Interesting and useful

Very interesting book with several useful tips. It is focused in the "digital darkroom" processes and it becomes an interesting handbook while working with image processing software. Moreover, it gives some advices on photographic techniques specially oriented to digital cameras and their particular performance.

Excellent book for outdoors photographers.

This book is packed with solid information. It's really helping me take better travel pictures now that I have upgraded to a digital single lens reflex camera.
