Photographing the Landscape: The Art of Seeing

John Fielder's latest title is a beautiful hybridization of a landscape monograph with a fine technical manual. The table of contents reads like an outline, breaking the book down almost page by page, providing instant access to every topic. Fielder addresses a wide range of issues from landscape "seeing"--seasons, the cycle of the day, and the Earth's shadow--to technique--lighting, exposures, and equipment--to hiking tips, expedition preparations, and patience.
