I love Lee Frost, his photographs and his book. Especially this book. See his photo - a real pleasure. But the book is good not only to the wealthy "portfolio" of the author - it contains a lot of interesting tips. Lee, thank you!

It does what these books should do: Inspire

What you can maybe hold against it is that the ideas you will get are quite conservative. But sometimes that’s enough to get you going

I liked the chatty style. Picked up an idea or two but not quite what I was looking for

Some of the ideas are great. Kinda wordy at times but it's great for ideas. It's one of those books where you'll get an idea and think it's original at the time but then remember later that you got the idea from his book.

I like this book. I plan on using it throughout the year when I have a dry spell and don't know what to go shoot. There are 50 different & unique projects in this book from architecture to household chores (yes - household chores!). Very motivational and inspiring book.

I thought it was great! It got my creative juices flowing! After reading it I wanted to go out and trying to take pictures! The introduction pages - I couldn't read - Gray text on a black background. That's the only reason I am giving it 4 out of 5.

This book, while simple, was totally inspiring for me. I'm anxious to try some of the things Frost talks about - particularly the "scantastic" ideas. Completely motivated to try new things now. Thanks!!!

Inspires you to go out and take pictures. The author also shares valuable techniques - I learned a lot of ND filters which is an advanced area for me.
