I have nearly finished reading 'Seeing Landscapes' by Charlie Waite which I have found to be a quite inspirational book . One thing in particular I have enjoyed about the book is that it isn't exactly a 'how to' instructional book but rather the author gives brief descriptions about each particular shot saying what he wanted to achieve in taking it . He leaves the reader with plenty of thought provoking stuff (well he did for me anyway!) to work out for themselves how to achieve better landscapes . Wondering if any members have any further recommendations re books to improve on landscape photography ?

Lee Frost's, Personal Views: The Art of Colour Landscape Photography.

It's a very clear book to read with lot's of pics and good tip's. Lee is a regular contributor to the magazines and runs photographic holidays.

Now that would make an interesting shot! I was intrigued to know how he did this. Some of his shots are quite high up, in remote locations with a very log exposure - must have been some tripod!

Anything else by Charlie Waite is worth a read too - I love his latest, In My Mind's Eye. Anyone read Peter Watson's "Light in the Landscape"?

Portfolio and Viewpoints both produced by Outdoor photography magazine.

They are the best of the relavant sections over the years in the magazine. Great for location hunting!

Got my copy from Amazon but it was a couple of years ago. It's a great book, Lee gives advice on everything from metering methods to types of sunlight.
