The Hot Shoe Diaries

Just started reading this book by Joe McNally, and it's a bit of a treasure trove. Basically a narrative of how he has approached shots, and more importantly why he made the decisions he did.

Also picked up a new way to hold my camera as a "left-eye" photographer, which seems to be working pretty well so far and a bit of inspiration, involving a monopod and a remote release. Off to play in the forest now, and try out the monopod thing, I'll post a shot when I get back (if it works...).

You can see Joe's book at http://my.safaribooksonline.com/9780321602497 although I picked up a hard copy - it's nice to be able to leaf about through it... :-)
