It’s currently available on Lenscraft, Amazon and Google with Apple and others following in a few days. I’ve invested so much time in writing and then rewriting it, that to have it finished feels … Continue reading New Book Launch
Despite all the recent problems with losing my Photo Library (I do have a backup for 98% of the drive), I was able to launch my new book on Amazon over the weekend.

I have been updating one of my books following feedback from a few readers. The book was called “Beginning Photography the Right Way” which appears to be misleading. Experienced photographers have contacted me to say they found it valuable and a good refresher on many points.
