Inspiration Leica Akademie (English and German Edition)

Brought this because I’m totally besotted with my Leica M10-R. It’s one of those books you read on a quiet evening. I like that it gives motivation to step out with your camera.For some reason I find Leica camera owners conservative. But I want to stretch boundaries with it. Astro, time lapse, etc…so I found this book and it’s excellent images the motivation I need.

Es un gran libro que abarca distintos contenidos, entre ellos creatividad, composición y uso de la luz.Si amas el punto rojo, es un libro que te encantará

The book is laid out very simply. You have a genre of photograph(s) on a single page and a quick description about the shot and the photographer. The shots are amazing, and the color pops out. The write ups are inspirational. Highly recommend.

Let me tell you about the great book first. The book is really good. Awesome even. It does what the title say, provides "Inspiration" for photographers who need some ideas thrown at them every once in awhile. It's a heavy well made book with thick paper and quality photos. It's also well written. Brief but less is more sometimes. Half of the text is in German, but for me it didn't bother me one bit.Let me just say that the 1 star is because the seller put a $65 book in an envelope...wait for it...USPS. I would like to say so much more, but I think you can see what I'm saying. The envelope was torn and the book damaged. I hope they got someone new in the shipping department (grin).Anyhow. I liked the book enough that I contacted the author and she provided another Amazon seller...so now I'm happy that I have an undamaged book.

A series of some good images and some bad with the typical formless verbiage on how to take "good images."
