Although this book was written before the advent of digital cameras, it is still useful today. Not many books this price about photographing trees, either. Good aesthetic and technique advice.

This book is extremely good in organisation, information, description and method of photographing trees. Although some of the technical stuff may be outdated (per digital cameras which are not covered), the book strengthens your awareness and perception of how to “look” at trees.

It’s truly ashame that this book is out-of-print.
Any photographer who is interested in capturing the true strength of a tree (or trees) on film should hunt down this informative guide for some serious tips and technique. Allen Rokach is a gifted photographer and his work is presented in color photographs throughout.
Well worth the effort to find it.
