This one, from pre-digital 1988, focuses on two things: how to identify the most interesting composition for a given subject, and what focal length and aperture will best capture that composition. Each page features a snapshot of a scene along with a perfectly composed photo from the same scene, with commentary about how the composition came to be. The primary focus is landscape and scenic photography (not portraiture). Composition topics include macro photography and the best use of available light. Also included are a number of exercises to help you develop your photographic vision (each involving days or weeks taking hundreds of shots). Highly, highly, highly recommended.
