Tweeting Rainbow, Photography Edition

Ok, I don't have a catchy theme song (yet), but I can offer a sweet list of books to sharpen your photography skills, and inspire you over the winter months.

The first set of books was recommended by photographers on twitter.  This was in response to my original tweet which asked "What is your favorite photography book of all time?"


@theodore fisher - "Between the Sexes" by Elliott Erwitt 

@adamcbartlett - "The Here and Now: The Photography of Sam Jones"


@exp123 - "The Moment It Clicks" by Joe McNally

@mooreimages - "Half Past Autumn" by Gordon Parks


@fakhra_o  - "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson


Next, are a few books which have recently accompanied me on the subway.  While my selections are not only about photography, I believe they are all related.  Like LeVar Burton used to say, "You don't have to take my word for it."  Check these out for yourself!

"The Creation" by Ernst Haas

"Spunk & Bite" by Arthur Plotnik

"It's Not How Good You Are, It's How Good You Want To Be" by Paul Arden

"Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson" 

"Eugene Atget" by Aperture Masters of Photography
