I bought the digital version of this book in hopes of having a guide to take with us on our holiday. I wanted to take some fantastic water shots while I was gone. This book fails on so many levels:1 The pictures should be in colour to truly illustrate techniques2 The photographer should demonstrate the techniques used more clearly - very poorly done3 This book is archaic in technique4 It is designed for the very basic and beginner photographerThere are many book out there better than this one. Don't waste your money - I wish I hadn't.
