Very nice book! The author focuses on few important aspects of photography. There are chapters about motivation, composition, analog and digital photography techniques, creativity and the relation of photography to other types of art. At the end the author also gives few suggestions how to improve and think about photography.
Personally, I liked the most the chapters about what the author considers to be the motivation and the drive for making photography and what makes each photograph important, worth taking and looking at. I think this was the most special part about this book as I did not read much about that in the other books about photography that I read.
On the downside, the chapters in the middle, about analog and digital photography techniques, seemed a bit long and probably for some, including me for analog photography techniques, outdated. I think the second author's book (Essence of Photography) focuses more on the motivation and what makes photographs great and cuts out the very technical details.
I am giving 5 starts, because the book was really great in the chapters about the motivation, how to look at photography and the art in general, something really unique, that I think needs to be read by somebody really interested in photography.
