Superlative book on a subject often too lightly dismissed but of the utmost importance. Clearly written, cleverly illustrated, thorough but straight to the point. A must for... well, everyone! * Armando Vilas-Boas, IADE, Portugal * The book has valuable information for any beginner photographer. The images are very helpful and inspirational. The printing quality of the book is of a high standard making it much more useful as a visual aid. * Rusaila Bazlamit, German Jordanian University, Jordan * A little bit of luxury to have an entire book given over to composition... this text informs and inspires. * K. J. Shepherdson, Canterbury Christ Church University * What an amazing book. * Kevin Scully, Granite State College at Rochester & Portsmouth, USA * Composition is one of those topics that has surely been done to death. But in the hands of David Präkel, the subject expands its scope in new and fascinating directions. Präkel's engaging and knowledgeable text sits perfectly alongside the consistently beautiful imagery. The fairest comparison would be to place this book alongside any of Michael Freeman's equally vital publications, and that is high praise indeed. If you're looking for a jolt of inspiration, this is the perfect book for you. * Oliver Atwell, Amateur Photographer, December 2012, http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk/round-ups/539315/christmas-gift-ideas-be st-photo-books-of-2012 *
