This book is an incredible wealth of knowledge- it covers the basics of wildlife photography including how to find your subjects, how to respectfully photograph them, and how to use your camera to translate that moment into a photograph. It goes into the technical components of camera bodies, lenses, filters, and SD cards as well as how to compose a shot, travelling with gear, and more. This is especially helpful if you don't have a photography background but want to learn or just want one location with all the answers to your questions that come up as you get more into your wildlife photo journey! Highly recommend!
