"As an enthusiastic amateur landscape photographer, I cannot begin to relate how valuable this book of Ansel Adams has become to my growth and maturation as a photographer. I make a point of sitting down and reading through it, every page, at least four or five times a year. Ansel Adams is a wonderful teacher, and his joy and passion for photography is truly inspirational."
"Very inspirational. And you need not be an Adams fan to pull good out of this book. If you enjoy the creative process as it relates to photography, then I highly recommend taking a look."
"Good landscape photography is quite difficult and in this book Ansel Adams describes how he made 40 of his photos. Some of his stories give you an appreciation of the ease and sloppiness you can get away with in the digital realm. I'm not a big fan of Adams yet I still enjoyed reading this book to understand his techniques. Recommended."
