Summary: "Photographing Oregon"

Excellent book with wonderful color photos that prompt you to want to visit the areas described. I have not yet visited the areas to determine the accuracy of the directions; however, I have visited a number of the places in the book and the reader should have no trouble finding the locations.

This book has great photos. That means a lot to in a photo travel book. Means the photographer knows his / her stuff. I've only done a couple of suggestions from the book. But they were both good suggestions.

I feel a bit silly reviewing this book as i have not seen it ,i bought it for my relation who lives in Oregon and has done for the last 6 years ,i have visited Oregon twice since they moved there and found it a photographers paradise either mountains deserts or coast ,now my cousin is retiring she has started to take an interest in photography i thought this would interest her ,on the weekend of reciving it she phoned me to say that her and her husband had planed trips already and that it was full of little tips ,so untill i go over again i will not benefit but it looks like it will be well used by then ,Barrie
