Adventure photography couldn't be simpler. At least that's how Michael Clark makes it seem in his how-to book Adventure Photography: Capturing the World of Outdoor Sports ($24.95, larkbooks.com). The 15-year veteran has shot everything from yoga to surfing to expedition races, and in this book documents every detail of the who, what, when, where, why, and how of each sport. The detailed descriptions of his photographic equipment and outdoor gear, down to the water bottle and pen, are super helpful, and he covers every aspect of adventure photography from beginning to end. For all this, the 200-plus-page, full-size, full-color book is more like a coffee table art book than an instructional manual. With bonus interviews with photographer Corey Rich and photo editor Sabine Meyer, it's a must for anyone who is remotely interested in adventure photography. - By JE, via Climbing.com
I bought this book when I saw an advert for it in a magazine... I have to say, it lives up to the hype... I've been into adventure photography for awhile as a hobby and always have had dreams about making it a career, but never knew where to start... I'm on my 3rd reading of the book and it has pushed my desire over the edge... Thanks to Michael for putting out a great product.
