Leonard Lee Rue III turns this `how-to' book into a beginning photographer's dream guide. Without losing any important material, Rue is able to guide the reader through the technical aspects of photography with much ease. In this book Leonard Lee Rue (the most published wildlife photographer in N. America) shares many of his trade secrets from the equipment he uses to the best areas to photograph wildlife. As a naturalist, he is able to delve into animal behavior and discuss a few species in detail to ensure the reader and novice photographer a better understanding and respect for nature and wildlife. It is this aspect to the book that I appreciate the most. Leonard Lee Rue III is a naturalist who is a master of photography. His insight into the wonders of nature and his technical expertise in photography make this book a must have for any aspiring wildlife photographer.
