Great pictures, some show major digital grain...its a bit to much Philosophy for me....yes, nature photography is also about feelings BUT.

Nature photography isn't as easy as it looks. It requires a great deal of thought and more than a little skill.

In fact on an early page he says get a camera you like 'if you don't like your camera, no matter ... if it gets a top rating from 'Consumer Reports,' you won't use it as much as a camera that you truly enjoy using.' Some of the best...
