Best source for serious photojournalist/photographers October 12, 2008
I consider this book the best source for information I have found on the topic of photojournalism & photography. Most important it covers the subjects of editing & ehtics & good judgement. If more photographers read & learned from this source maybe the world would be a better place. No joke intended. I plan to keep buying the newest addition as it is updated.
Photojournalist Jewel!!!! October 10, 2008
I have been studying photojournalism for about two years now and I have never seen a book near the quality and content of this book. If you are just looking to get into the field or have been in the field for years, get this book. It opens your mind as to what photojournalism, the content, what to look for, where to look, and so much more.
A must have book March 8, 2008

This is a must have book. Great for law enforcement photographers as well. Check out the sections dealing with picture editing, ethics, and the law.
