Mark Hanson 4.0 out of 5 stars The intended audience is, I believe, the fairly new amateur, because the authors do not assume any familiarity with types of cameras, lenses or film. The text is accompanied on every page by photos (often quite striking) by the authors illustrating the subjects discussed.http://gammatradings.com/userfiles/featherlite-fl20c-manual.xml

Having no background in photographing flowers but having embarked on a project to take pictures of a good many, I found this book quite helpful. I can't say that I have taken pictures as fresh as stunning as those the authors provide, but I believe have come up a notch or two. Well worth the price and time to read.The writing is clear; the vast knowledge of the author about plants, garden photography and teaching is obvious and generously shared. Highly recommend.Trying to translate it for digital use, but the same fundamentals apply and the pictures are great.Excellent book.Be mindful that it was from 1995 and has not been updated for digital photography. All photo descriptions reference film types.Many great tips and a good teaching manual.

James M Kimbrough 5.0 out of 5 stars Fast deliveryThis book is as full of good information as an entire year of study.Any photographer who is interested in capturing the true strength of a tree (or trees) on film should hunt down this informative guide for some serious tips and technique. Allen Rokach is a gifted photographer and his work is presented in color photographs throughout. Well worth the effort to find it.Not many books this price about photographing trees, either. Good aesthetic and technique advice.It is also mostly US based, which I knew, however the photographs are superb. I have two others of the same series which are interesting. Join today So Says a New Conspiracy Theory Making Waves (and Money) Our panel of expert judges whittled down the entries to six spectacular winners, but with so many fantastic submissions every year, we always have to share more. Once again, we've selected 100 additional photographs, displayed here in no particular order. The collection shows birdlife in all its delightful and captivating variety, from elegant to humorous to powerful. And should the stunning images spark an interest in picking up a camera to capture the beauty of birds, check out our photography guide; it’s got everything you need to get started, including tips and how-to’s, gear recommendations, and Audubon's ethical guidelines for wildlife photography. Train with pros this summer at a series of free Canon- and Audubon-led workshops, bird walks, and festivals around the country; events will be held at the Minnesota Valley Wildlife Refuge, the Strawberry Plains Audubon Center in Mississippi, the John James Audubon Center in Pennsylvania, and more (click here for the complete schedule). Next year your photograph of a feeding frenzy or an intimate family portrait might make the cut. Within minutes a group of Roseate Spoonbills flew in and landed nearby. They walked through the shallow water, swinging their open bills from side to side to sift for crustaceans and small fish. At one point the more brightly colored adult snapped at the leg of the paler juvenile. Seconds later they went back to searching for food as though nothing had happened. This past winter was particularly snowy, so I put out extra feeders for the birds and set out cattails for them to use as nesting material. Two females I had seen quickly found the nesting option to their liking, and I captured this shot one morning in March from my back patio. I was thrilled to capture the three lined up in various stages of takeoff: the House Finch still perched, the Pyrrhuloxia with its wing up, and the Northern Cardinal launched into the air. It was an added bonus that Pyrrhuloxias and cardinals look so similar, as they are closely related. I noticed a Savannah Sparrow perched on a flower, calling out to proclaim his territory, and I realized a very different shot might be possible—a fanciful Technicolor bird-scape. The following week I returned with a new lens and began to study the sparrow. He often preferred the tallest tulips in the area, and would stay in his monochromatic field. I found sparrows in pink, purple, yellow, and orange fields. This fellow offered “Savannah in Red.” A Snowy Egret, prowling the duckweed-filled marshes, was waiting for the right moment to strike. As it lunged forward, I fired off a series of frames, capturing the instant its sharp bill pierced the surface, sending duckweed flying into the air. I stepped through the foliage and came across this Red-shouldered Hawk bathing in a large puddle. I lowered myself to the ground and maneuvered my lens through the brush. I chose a shallow depth of field to deal with the low light and busy setting, and a fast shutter speed to capture the splashes. The hawk stayed and bathed for a few minutes before shaking himself and flying off. It was a wonderful, intimate moment. Every 20 minutes, the male or female would show up with an insect or wild avocado for the nestlings. Here, I caught the male peering out of the nest hole after a delivery. I got a kick out of seeing that his long streamers—the upper tail coverts, not his tail feathers—didn’t fit in the nest with him, but curved around to stick out over his head. But this individual made my day by lighting on a natural twig in glowing backlight. The perch was exceedingly flimsy in the wind, so the bird had a hard time staying upright. We encountered this little male aggressively patrolling his territory, his beak speckled with pollen. He stopped and perched on a willow branch right in front of us for a few brief seconds—long enough for me to shoot a couple frames. The photo is a sort of special wedding gift for us. This day, I followed this male Common Yellowthroat that was out in the open, calling for a mate. I used a shallow depth of field to isolate him and create a sense of smallness and fragility. When we turned the last switchback, the snow blanketing the woods reflected just enough light to illuminate this pair of Ural Owls in a tree hollow. They slept through the frigid half hour I spent observing them, only stirring to shuffle in their sleep. To get this shot, I balanced my lens on my knee and braced against a tree so my shivering wouldn't blur the image. I climbed out of my sled, pulled off my bulky mittens, and got as low to the ground as possible. I noticed one straggler hanging back that started jumping to nibble on a tree branch. I had never heard of this behavior before, and I smiled as my shutter fired away, getting shots of multiple jumps. This image captured the moment best. It dove headfirst into the freezing water again and again in search of food. I waited on the river bank as it moved back and forth across the rocky stream, slowly making its way toward me. I captured this brief moment of the dipper perched on an ice shelf before it plunged into the water once again. On the last evening of the trip, severe wind and dark skies nearly drove me inside. But I decided to remain on the cliffs and was rewarded with an unexpected break in the clouds and an unobstructed view of a backlit, sand-eel-toting puffin hurrying to its burrow. I crept over to the clearing and got as low as I could until I was at the birds’ level. The group was constantly moving except for one instant when they all lined up perfectly and looked at the camera. I spent another hour taking pictures of the fighting before two finally mated and the rest flew away. For weeks I dressed in camouflage from head to toe and made my way to a ledge 60 yards from the nest. I watched the chicks grow and witnessed their first days of flying. In this shot, a male fledgling looks up in hopes of receiving a scrap of food that one of his parents had just delivered to his brother. Shortly after, he flew up and shared the meal. The little ones often spend their waking hours exploring. They build new nests and pick up objects off the ground, and tug on branches like a puppy would tug on slippers. The older they get, the more interested they become in things that fly: birds, bees, butterflies—even helicopters and planes. I saw this chick watching an adult albatross fly overhead; when I returned the next day, it had fledged. I noticed that the female appeared bolder than many of the other birds visiting the water. With the weak morning light, I felt fortunate to get her head frozen in this position. Before I even left my car I noticed a Red-tailed Hawk flying erratically over the marsh, chasing something. I grabbed my camera, jumped out of the car, and began tracking the hawk with my lens. Soon it dropped close to the ground, still in hot pursuit. I took a quick burst as the hawk flew through a stand of phragmites. I was struck by its power and grace. I arrived as the sun was rising, providing just enough light to illuminate this albatross pair as they performed a courtship ritual with bills crossed, mutual preening, and vocalizations. The cliff below was not yet lit, providing a dark background that emphasizes the intimacy of the moment. In hopes of capturing one in flight, I checked the direction of the wind and the light, set up my position, and waited. Finally, the flock took flight with a mountain backdrop, illuminated by the soft morning light. I may have missed a big Thanksgiving dinner with my family, but I didn’t miss a Thanksgiving turkey. Regional Shoreline, Oakland, CA On one high-tide visit, wave after wave of Marbled Godwits and Willets began descending on the far end of the boardwalk. As more birds flew in, the earlier arrivals were forced to make space, resulting in a mass of hundreds of shorebirds shuffling toward me. I lay down to get eye level with the mob and captured this close up, primarily of godwits. Knowing that the fading light would give me little time to get a decent photograph, I hurried to get into a good position. I got lucky when one of the spoonbills waded toward me, just as the sun was setting, and I was able to capture this beautiful bird at one of my favorite places. I spend hours on my belly, propped up on elbow pads and knee pads, waiting for the curious birds to make their way toward me. I watch as they catch bugs, preen, and begin to navigate on their own. For three years I’d tried to catch the chicks stretching their wings on camera before I finally captured this shot. Just after they left, this Hooded Warbler landed on a branch nearby. The bird, the water droplets, and the patter of the rain on my rain jacket all made the moment alone seem magical. To my delight a trio emerged from the water and walked straight toward me. This photo seems to capture the unique personality of each bird. I saw three best friends, from left to right: the comedian, the ringleader, and the runway model. As soon as I pointed my lens at the flock they banked, showing off the intricate patterns on their wings. After I snapped off a round of shots the sun went back behind the clouds and I decided to call it a day and head home. We entered a small lagoon covered with lily pads and came upon a jacana tip-toeing over the plants, searching for something to eat. To get eye-level with the bird, I hung over the bow of the boat and positioned my camera just above the water. One Willet in particular let me photograph him to my heart’s content, as long as I didn’t get too close. Most of the time he would dig for snails on the water’s edge, but sometimes he tried to grab a morsel that washed up in the surf, like in this shot. Two weeks after I took this photograph he left, I assume to migrate north. I can hardly wait until he comes back next year. It turned and stared back at me, lit up in dramatic lighting that shows its intensity. A continuous stream of more and more birds joined the immense flock, which cut through the air like a school of fish fleeing a shark. On a particularly cold May morning at sunrise, the birds and cattails were backlit and glowing like miniature lanterns. One landed very close to me, and through my lens I could see a burst of breath rolling in the cold wind with each call. I returned every day for more than a week trying to create a similar image, but the same conditions didn’t occur again. The bird was in the perfect spot for the sun to hit its face while the oak leaves shaded the rest of the photo, creating this dramatic effect. I went out early one morning to find male Southern Red Bishops positioned on top of reeds, puffing themselves up and frantically trying to out-sing each other to attract a mate. This one was putting his heart and soul into it. I brought every cooling device with me I could. But after a day of photographing songbirds from a blind, the heat stress I saw in the birds eclipsed my own discomfort. The blind allowed me to take photographs next to a small manmade pool. When individuals like this female cardinal cautiously approached the water’s edge, I found myself rooting for them to drink and bathe to cool down. I set up a camera in our garden and use a feature that takes an image anytime a subject comes into focus so I can get photos like this, with a bird in flight, looking at the camera and exposing its beautiful metallic throat feathers. I set up my tripod close to the ground with a telephoto lens and started shooting. When another bird got between us, I had a great view of the aggressive egret running straight at me. When a wave receded, they would run closer to the water to grab a quick meal in the wet sand. Then, as another wave crashed, they would run back toward the land as fast as their little legs could carry them. This tiny Sanderling was having a particularly hard time getting back quickly enough to avoid an exceptionally large wave. I knew he was fishing, so I approached very slowly so as not to disturb him. The sunlight filtered through the reeds, providing a warm light. I wanted to frame the bird between the reeds and capture the focus of this tiny fisherman. At one point, a Northern Bobwhite male came to drink and quickly left. He must have been scoping out the surroundings because he soon returned with his mate and five chicks. The chicks ran around, drinking and hiding in the brush while their parents watched over them. In the midst of the chaos, the magic happened. All the birds lined up in front of the water for a family portrait. In winter, Red-winged Blackbirds flock by the hundreds in the area, but by late May there are far fewer birds. I was relieved to see one Red-winged Blackbird still around, gorging on the excess of mayflies. I positioned myself so that the light would be behind the birds as they landed. After waiting for several minutes I captured this shot of a Yellow-rumped Warbler, its tongue extended, in the golden light. As the light got brighter, I spotted this owl standing on the shore. I had a tense walk as I passed the bird to set up my shot as low as possible, with the camera angled to capture the glow of the sun reflecting off the Atlantic. The branch was too small for him, so he swung upside down and hung there for a few seconds. He flapped his wings to right himself—the moment I took this shot—only to swing back upside down. This happened several times. Finally, the other woodpecker flew right by him, spooking him so he took off from the branch. Terns blotted out the sky and pelicans soared like airplanes, but the stilts reflected in the water are what caught our eyes. A small group had been scared off by a gull and flew a short lap around the pond before returning. I got this shot moments before the birds touched down in the water. She didn’t appear until the last moments of light. She perched on a short spruce tree like a holiday ornament presiding over the field. The face of a Great Gray Owl is like a radar dish that can detect rodents beneath a foot of snow and pinpoint their location with incredible accuracy. The tree gave her an even greater advantage, reducing the time she needed to pounce on unsuspecting quarry below. After a long, cold wait, we had just decided to give up and pack away our gear when the birds emerged from the cover of spruce trees and came running toward us. They scooted on their bellies through the deep drifts, spraying snow as they ran. On a cold day, I saw at least 10 eagles in this tree. I panned the camera to follow the action and snapped away when I saw an interloper fly in, drawing the birds’ gazes in the same direction. I’m happy none of the branches obstructed their heads. On an impulse I raised my camera and fired off several shots. This one is my favorite because the flicker’s orange-tinted wings match the leaves of the trees. The quiet light from overcast skies, whitish color scheme, and diffused foreground and background created a subtle and muted image that seemed to fit the tranquility of an avocet. After one unsuccessful trip to the lake, we went back the next day and spotted it. When we arrived the loon disappeared for a long dive underwater then it surfaced right in front of me with a big splash—so close that I got all wet! I waded onto the shore of an adjacent island, holding my backpack above my head, to get a better view without disturbing the birds. I watched as a group of gulls harassed an adult tern carrying a fish in the air as it tried again and again to join its mate and chick. Eventually, the tern landed and shared the fish. I was fortunate to capture this family shot of all three terns after the meal. For days I had been working to get photos of the two interacting and showing off their elaborate tails, so I was thrilled to see them bicker. I used a narrow depth of field to blur the background and bumped up my ISO to keep a fast shutter speed in the fading light. I stopped on a bridge to take pictures of an Eared Grebe and was thrilled when a second grebe came into view, head bobbing in unison with the first. I watched as the pair preened and stretched in tandem. I managed to capture a shot of the beautiful lobed foot of one of the birds sticking out of the water. I’ve become fascinated by vultures as I’ve learned more about them, including that their stomach juices, which help them break down bacteria-ridden meat, rival battery acid. Instead I came across a group of robins and waxwings feeding on frozen berries. The waxwings stayed near the tops of the trees, so I focused on the robins. I captured one with its wings outstretched as it reached up for fruit. This spot is usually horribly backlit in the morning, so I captured this shot in bright, overcast light at midday. Afterward the pair completed the nest, though ultimately they had to relocate after crows invaded their territory. There were a few far out in the field, too far for my camera. When the official trip broke up, I stayed in the area to see what else might show up. To my luck, the grouse started coming in quite close, giving me great views of their mating dance and a chance to hear their funny early morning doop calls. It was a privilege to see them in all their goofy glory. One morning, after the temperature had dropped the night before, I paddled out in a kayak through fog hanging just over the water. While I was floating in the boat, this adult swam into a small patch of sunlight that gave it a golden glow. I was thrilled to capture such an intimate portrait. Sometimes during these checks other wild condors become curious and fly in to see what’s going on, such as Condor 219, also known as Puff Daddy. His nickname comes from his tendency to inflate his air sacs, as I caught him doing here. When it rains, Burrowing Owls and their owlets dance: They posture and spread their wings to cool down from the water.
