MEDIA REVIEWS
"Paul Lowe has assembled a collection of thoughts,ideas,principles,guidelines,maxims and advice from a wide range of outstanding photographers... There's an abundance of thoughts to stimulate and inspire.... A bonus of the book is the inclusion of superb pictures by a large number of B&W photographers... Although some pictures will be familiar,it's always a pleasure to see them again and a delight when discovering someone new."
