<span style="font-family: Verdana; color: #000000; font-size: 9pt;"]I'm a voracious reader and I read a lot of novels;everything from [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._R._R._Tolkien]J.R.R. Tolkien[/url] and [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Herbert]Frank Herbert[/url] to [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Clancy]Tom Clancy[/url] and [url="http://www.jeffshaara.com/]Jeff Shaara[/url]. I also read a lot of war history. So, I'm not looking as much to be entertained as I am to learn more about photography and improve my skills.



<span style="font-family: Verdana; color: #000000; font-size: 9pt;"]<o>Learning about photography I've read several books by David Buschstarting with <span id="btAsinTitle"][url="http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Photography-Reference-Dummies-Computers/dp/0470401958/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpt_8][i]Digital Photography All-in-One Desk Reference For Dummies[/i][/url][i], [/i][url="http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Cameras-Photography-Dummies-Computer/dp/0470466065/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1248359915& amp;sr=8-1][i]DSLRs for Dummies[/i][/url][i],[/i]<span id="btAsinTitle"][url="http://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Digital-Photography-David-Busch/dp/1598634011/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpi_5][i]Mastering Digital SLR Photography[/i][/url][i],[/i]<span>[url="http://www.amazon.com/Digital-SLR-Secrets-David-Busch/dp/1598630199/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpt_2][i]Digital SLR Pro Secrets[/i][/url][i][/i]and[i][/i][url="http://www.amazon.com/David-Buschs-Canon-Digital-Photography/dp/1598635786/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpt_10][i]David Busch's Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi/450D Guide to Digital SLR Photography[/i][/url].I also read [url="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Photography-Bible/Lezano/e/9780715325995/?itm=1][i]The Photography Bible[/i][/url] by [url="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/results.asp?ATH=Daniel+Lezano]Daniel Lezano[/url]. I'd recommend themfor beginners but, I'm looking for something deeper.</o>


<span style="font-family: Verdana; color: #000000; font-size: 9pt;"]<o>I've recently read [url="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Master-Lighting-Guide-for-Portrait-Photographers/Christopher-Grey/e/9781584281252/?itm=5][i]Master Lighting Guide for Portrait Photographers[/i][/url]by [url="/booksearch/results.asp?ATH=Christopher+Grey]Christopher Grey[/url]and [url="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Master-Posing-Guide-for-Childrens-Portrait-Photographers/Norman-Phillips/e/9781584281917/?itm=9][i]Master Posing Guide for Children's Portrait Photographers[/i][/url]by [url="/booksearch/results.asp?ATH=Norman+Phillips]Norman Phillips[/url].</o>


<span style="font-family: Verdana; color: #000000; font-size: 9pt;"]I'm currently reading Joe McNally's <span id="btAsinTitle"]<span style="font-family: Verdana; color: #3366cc;"][url="http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&amp;keywords=the+moment+it+clicks&amp;tag =googhydr-20&amp;index=aps&amp;hvadid=1155721361&amp;ref=pd_ sl_8qrsc0phum_e][i]The Moment It Clicks[/i][/url][i][/i]<span style="color: #000000;"](BTW - I highly recommend it). Next will be <span style="color: #3366cc;"]<span style="font-family: Verdana; color: #3366cc;"]The Hot Shoe Diaries<o></o>. Does anyone have any other recommended reading? I just need something to get my photography fix when I'm away from the computer (In the head, at work, waiting on the Wife at the mall...etc). I read too fast for magazines to be much more than a light snack. They can get quite expensive when yougo throughthem as fast as I do. Besides most of the more interesting articles I've already read online before I pick upthe magazine.





P.S. When I say I read a book it not only means I read it buthave it on my bookshelf for future reference.
