There are a couple of things you take for granted when you travel with your family.  Chaos will rule at times and you'll want to get great photos to embarrass your kids with when they start dating.  After all, what are parents for?

Richard l'Anson has done a terrific job of putting together a great guide book that will improve your travel photography whether you're going around the world or to the neighborhood park. 

The book is well laid out in four parts,  First Things First, Taking Control, On The Road, and Back at Home.  Almost every single page has outstanding color photos with detailed information on how the photo was taken.  Richard's fantastic photos from all over the world are worth the price of the book by themselves. 

The book includes:

  • Techniques to help you make the most of your skills

  • Advice on avoiding common photographic mistakes

  • Buying guide to photographic equipment

  • Tips for protecting and caring for your camera gear and equipment while on the road

  • Inside information on assessing, displaying and earning money with your photographs

So, whether you have children or not, I'm sure you'll benefit greatly from the terrific information gathered in this book.
