Digital Photography Secrets reveals the secrets of professional picture-taking to its essence. There's no history, no mystery, no trivia, and you won't find any amusing anecdotes about "the digital photographer and the farmer's daughter."

If you are looking for a magician disclosing his secrets, this book is not for you. On the other hand, if you are looking for clear, concise, practical and easy to understand steps to take better pictures - this is the book you want! Each page has a suggestion as to how to improve your pictures - from better composition, to better awareness, to improving work flow, gear recommendations, improving exposure, focus, and the list goes on and on. I can honestly say, that I have learned something from each page of digital photography secrets and I found the perfect photo accompanying each page particularly helpful in reinforcing each page's "secret".

After reading each page, I got anxious to grab my camera and go out and test David's suggestions.

I highly recommend this book to anyone either new to photography or anyone that is looking to improve their skills.

I've attended a few courses on photography including the on-line course. But none of it that gave me a straight and layman explanation until I received read these secrets of photography. Even with the early few secrets, I have tried and got wonderful and meaningful images that I have been trying all these years. Thanks for your brilliant and systematic approach."

I highly recommend Digital Photography Secrets ! It is conveniently broken into clear sections such as Photographing People, Close-ups, Landscape, etc. so you can jump in at whatever area interests you most. It's a fast read, but I was learning so much and thinking of so many practical applications, I would definitely need to revisit areas. Each page is devoted to an educational point or idea along with a wonderful picture as an example. Rick Simmon includes a DVD with the book which is done in his dynamic and very entertaining style. Again, topics are covered separately with techniques and finished products. A great book to have in your library! I highly recommend it.

David's lessons of digital Photography Secrets are clear, precise and so easy to understand. The pictures included really helped to understand the points better. In the later chapters I enjoyed your discussions on travel, children's photography, visualization, etc.

You'll never stress out again working with pint-sized subjects thanks to strategies like:
10 tips for taking winning shots involving tots

Learn the techniques to keep your equipment in top working order including:

Some of what you'll learn from "digital photography secrets" are "basics" of good photography: composition, lighting, etc. But you'll find lots of special insights on the special needs of the digital photographer including:
