The Art of Flower and Garden Photography

The Art of Flower and Garden Photography - by Clive Nichols

An RHS book - jacket price £20 now remaindered at £5.99

A superb, inspirational book with dozens of Clive's images and the background of how he obtained the results.

It's not a "step by step", "how to" guide for absolute beginners - but if you want to learn and have a basic grasp of lighting and camera controls - you are already on your way.

Clives insightful comments and tips are well worth reading.

The front cover, view on Amazon, could be a work of art in its own right -the lighting is simply amazing.

A good read or a great present.

5 Stars from me for this superb book.

You won't be disappointed Pete - this is a stunning book and has really inspired me over the last few days to try something different.

Clives images have given me a real interest in this subject (they are really exceptional) and it's not an area I've concentrated on previously.

I'll post my results later, I've got two from new experiments this week with found subjects in the back garden but I seem to be having problems uploading images from flickr. I'm following the forum instructions but something is not working.

Probably "operator error".................... we'll see.
