Product Description
Michael Busselle brings his considerable experience to bear in this essential and informative title for everyone who wants to improve their photography techniques. 100 Ways to Take Better Photos reveals the answers to many of those questions the enthusiastic amateur photorapher wants to ask. In a clear, jargon-free style, devoting a page to each of the 100 ways, Michael Busselle provides solutions that will help both beginners and more advanced photographers get the results they want. Moving from the basics of coping with camera shake, through choosing filters and framing a composition, the author goes on to advise on areas such as shooting in bad weather, photographing interiors, and taking portraits. More advanced chapters deal with special close-up techniques for photographing wildlife or pets, bringing a fresh eye to your travel souvenirs with advice on shooting architectural detail, and how to convey the best of a landscape view - even in snow or fog.

 Waste of your life.... January 21, 2008

This book was so disappointing, after page 25 I realized the theme, that I was not learning anything. It was mindless coffee table scanning. It teaches you nothing. One buys a book for growth, yet with this book, all you have to do is skim the 100 titles and you get the point. He could have just typed them on one piece of paper! It was a waste my time/life reading as much as I did. No f stop info, shutter speed used. All he provided was mm distance from subjects! -I don't even want it in my house. How does one resell on Amazon?!?
Good overview September 2, 2007
I'm a fairly skilled amature photographer, so I wasn't looking for a strict "how-to" book - which this book is definately NOT. However, it provides great suggestions, ideas, and inspiration. It was a great review of techniques - like using the camera's panarama program for a vertical shot - that I probably knew but haven't thought of in a while. Covering such a wide range of photography situations, from macro shots to panaramas, this book is a great overview of techniques for all kinds of situations. I highly recommend it, especially if you're doing a shoot that is, for you, a bit unusual.
A great summary of ways to improve your photos May 5, 2007
I agree with a previous reviewer that if you've taken a photography course you've probably learned the 100. I knew most if not all of them and I've never taken a photography course but I've read a lot of books. However, the beauty of this book is it is a great reminder of things to consider when taking photos and it illustrates the points with beautiful photographs! It was a real pleasure to read. Each of the 100 ideas has a text explaining the situation and then how & what he did to get the photo. There is also more text talking about the idea in a more generic manner. It's a great book to have as a reference. I know everyone knows many of these points but it's easy to forget them and having a great reminder is nice.
I highly recommend this book.
 I really want to give 3.5 stars January 30, 2007

This is book is technically ok, but it doesn't tell you anything you haven't learned if you have taken a photography course. So I guess if you have have never take a photography course in your life, it would be great book for you, but otherwise its only going to tell you tips that your instructor has probably already told you.
