Could a painter produce great paintings without understanding the nature of his paints? A photographer doesnt work in oils or water colors, but in light. Read this and Michael Freemans other book, "Image" and your understanding of what makes a great photograph will soar. Freeman organizes this around 3 types of light, natural, photographic and others. He then explains different lighting equipment and arrangements. Try Laurer's "Design" for the further understanding of composition. The examples from photography and painting are fabulous.
