There are some great tips in here, but there's also a lot of unrelated stuff (at least for me). It's a good beginning photography book for people who just want to do photography. A bigger part of the book than I expected is focused on making edits in Lightroom and Photoshop. I use On1. The book is really geared towards FF SLR users. I have an APS-C and a 4/3 camera and the tips for f/stops etc don't nec. hold. There's some of the same old: shoot at ISO 100, f/11, use a tripod and shoot during the golden hours. I shoot mostly during full daylight without a tripod. Still, there are many, many useful tips in here. So I give it 4 stars.

So well explained.
The chapter on post-processing is thirty pages of gold nuggets and worth every penny of the purchase price of the whole book, all by itself. This book does not live in one of my book-cases but on my desk by my computer.

I purchased this book in 2019 and have used it as a reference manual for landscape photography. Overall I found the book offered several ideas for post processing (Page 150: "In Lightroom, press and hold the Shift key, then simply double-click directly on the word "Whites," and then on "Blacks" in the Basic panel).
I also enjoyed Mr. Kelby's sense of humor. It was one more reason why I read this book cover to cover.
Again, this is a handy handbook for the aspiring landscape photographer.

Un ottimo testo, che ho apprezzato per il taglio molto pratico. È scritto in un inglese chiaro e scorrevole.
È un po’ come avere al fianco l’autore in un workshop fotografico, che spiega con semplicità i vari passi da seguire.

I could write a long review but I will not. I've never been disappointed by a Scott Kelby book. This one is no exception. The book is exactly what the title suggests. It will assuredly make you a better landscape photographer. The recipes are worth the price of the book alone. What always struck me about his way of writing is that he can explain what appears to be fairly complex techniques is such a clear and concise way that you get it the very first time you read the explanation. No unnecessary detail, no fluff. He goes straight to the point in a friendly manner with humor as a bonus. He has perfect images to explain every subject. I will undoubtedly repeat myself again: I have learnt more about photography technique AND art with Scott Kelby than any other author. It's strong praise and it's well deserved IMHO.

I wouldn't call this a book you will read from cover to cover. It is a reference. Pick a particular type of photography you are interested in and read that section of the book. Really, if your an experienced photographer, you are just picking up subtle things to do differently that will make a big difference in your photos. That is what happened to me. A couple of small things I did differently and the end result was much much better. Everything you need to know about any type of landscapes to shoot are covered in this book and he give you post processing tips as well enabling you to make great photos. If you want to, really want to learn everything there is to know or need to know, read this book and go out and practice what is in here. Because as we all know when it comes to this stuff, practice makes perfect. Go out and shoot!

It's great for beginners in landscape photography or those already a little advanced - hence it's pretty basic, but... it's wonderfully written in Scott Kelby's unique style which I like very much. Good read but definitely not a must have and not a must read.

Simply put, this is a fantastic guide for learning how to shoot beautiful landscape images. Mr. Kelby is an excellent communicator with years of experience as a photographer, writer, and teacher. You really can’t ask for more than that. I particularly like the way he presents topics in small bites, usually one page per topic, accompanied by photographs of what it is he is describing. I also laughed out loud at how he occasionally drives his points home by repeating important information, hoping it sinks in. For example, on the page 028 “Which Aperture (F-Stop) to Use” he mentions f/11 at least 7 times, to make it clear this is an excellent F-stop for keeping everything in focus. In fact, that is his favorite F-stop for landscapes. Thanks, Mr. Kelby, I got the message loud and clear. He also provides excellent tips throughout that only an experienced photographer can provide. Reading the book I found myself smiling during many “aha” moments when I learned something new or read a tip I can use in my own photography. Bottom line, this book is great - 5 thumbs up - and highly recommended.
