I read Beyond Snapshots: How to Take That Fancy DSLR Camera Off "Auto" and Photograph Your Life Like a Pro by Rachel Devine, and I realy enjoyed it! Although it is not the first photography book I have read, I still feel like I learned a lot. For a lot of the things (aperture, ISO, etc) I feel like repetition helps me remember all of the rules. For other aspects of photography, I like getting the viewpoints of different authors. It seems like everyone does things just a little bit differently and I like the variety!
Hopefully I can continue checking other books off my list. We'll see how it goes. I was more motivated to read this book than I have been for others...
