"Photography From the Car" is a book designed to encourage people to look at their close surroundings to get photographs worth sharing. If a person has limited range due to physicality or time, it is still possible to capture images of the natural world. The book has 80 photographs that were taken from the car or very near it. They are meant to show that interesting subjects can be found without long treks. The author has had limited mobility most of his life due to polio and does about 90% of his photography from his car. He has selected 10 of his favorite sites and talks a little about each and then presents photos taken at each site. He explains whether you can remain in the car at the site or what the terrain is like that you will need to cover to get your images. The last two chapters of the book discuss the equipment you will need and some hints for improving your photography. The appendix gives details on each of the photographs. All camera settings are given plus a comment about the photograph.This is not a how to book but is intended as inspirational. Hopefully, if you have limited mobility the book will show you what can be accomplished and inspire you to go out and create your own images. If you don't have a mobility problem the book will help you in looking at your surroundings in a different way.
