The Complete Guide to Close Up & Macro Photography
I don’t take pictures. I don’t plan to take pictures. And I am certainly no expert on color photography. My raw, uneducated reaction to this book is this: the amount of detail, texture, and variations of color captured on these pages is quite astounding.

I had to learn about macro photography for my senior project, and thanks to this book, I got an A on it.

If one wants to explore and record the beauty of close up objects, this is one anyone should have. Interesting, educational, inspirational and beautiful, this book deserves the praise it is receiving. From the author of Nature’s Palette: There’s More to See, Michael Impellizzeri.

This is a good book for people interested in close-up and macro photography, its advice is helpful and clear. However, you should consider the volume by Ronan Loaec and Gilles Martin instead. It is somewhat deeper into the subject, but the main reason I recommend it is because Davies’ photographs, while perfect, look amateurish compared to Martin’s ones, especially judging the artistic aspects.

I must say i am completly satisfied with the book. It cover all aspects of macro fotography,hardware, lighting, aperture,flash etc. It also goes into extreme detail in explaning other factors including exposure, calculations and so on. It tells you how to do macro photo in different scenarios.
