Rich: >From what I can tell this text seems to be an "introductory" text for those that wish to learn photography (beginner's level) with a emphasis on the artistic side of it. I am looking for a book that focus on advanced technical aspects of photography instead of addressing the artistic approach. However, I will keep your suggestion in mind and take a closer look at this textbook the next time I stop at Barnes and Noble. Thank you very much for your input and the recommendation.
