Breaking the Rules: A Photo Media Cookbook

Rating:
Summary: Step by Step
Review: Some of the techniques described are for outside of the darkroom, a definite plus if you're just starting out and don't have one set up. This book is like a cookbook, full of recipes for different photography techniques. Easy to read and understand and the price is right.

Summary: More than your regular photography how-to book
Review: This book is great for a beginning photographer or a professional artist who wants to get beyond traditional photography. Some of the techniques outlined in this book, such as magazine transfers, are accessible to people without darkrooms or cameras because you use magazine pages to create images. After reading this book, I began looking at photographic materials more creatively.
