photography books

This book arrived Saturday:


Large Format Nature Photography
by Jack Dykinga

It's not a detailed user book for view cameras but is a good introduction with some good advice. (Lots of good pictures, too!) One of the pieces of advice is to learn one lens at a time. I only have one lens ready to shoot — the 10 inch Elgeet. It's long for 4x5 but I might as well start there. I will be ordering film soon. Then I will start shooting while getting the other lenses in lens boards.
