The book contains many, many old sightings which I had never heard of, so is highly nformative. Heartily recommended to all who wish to gain an unprejudiced look at this fascinating subject.

If an alien technology were 1,000 years ahead of us, would they have our half-yearly… Read More

All edges clean, neat and free of foxing. This book is currently IN STOCK and would be shipped directly from our Australian address.. More than just a pretty face, this book is a treatise on landscape photography and is just as relevant for digital photography. Rankin clearly explains the principles of composition and lighting at some length, and steers away from suffocating discussions of techno-trivia like silver halides and aperture priority. His assessment of what is important in making good pictures is very welcome, since I believe the emphasis on ever more bells and whistles to be the path of fools, and particularly misguided in photography.
