## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Beauty in Writing
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 February 2010*

This is a small gem of a book. A thought provoking reflection on the effectivness of photographs. Adams' analysis of landscape photography particularly and the place of humans in all landscapes challenges many long held views. Illustrated sparingly this well designed book is one to come back to again and again for the well written strength of its essays.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Brilliant
  

*by G***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 January 2013*

An absolutely lovely book looking at several aspects of photography and discussing them in depth.Should a photographer, especially a documentary photographer manipulate and "enhance" the scene in front of him as an artist does or perhaps he already does when he chooses his viewpoint and selects a filter etc.....some things I had not thought of before, made me think.Well worth the money and an asset to the library of any photographer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Interesting ideas about art and photography
  

*by N***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 December 2015*

I love this book and find myself re-reading parts of it frequently. It's a fairly philosophical analysis of photography. The quality of the paper and hence the images is fairly low, but the ideas that Adams presents in a series of essays are interesting and timeless.
