Acknowledgments

Thank you to my wife Shirley, and my children, Ava and Kelly, who demonstrated admirable patience during this process and its many deadlines. Thank you to the Synectics Media team for your support and for taking the time to model in my camera demonstrations: Jeffrey Huysentruyt, Sharon Stanton, Katy Hinz, Tim Kloote, and Steve Gualtieri.

Thank you to the photography social media community, without which I would have never connected with all of the great photographers who share their knowledge in this book. I’m grateful to everyone who took the time to submit tips and photos — you added a wonderful dimension to this book.

Appreciation for added support goes to Dean La Douceur, Greg Evans, April Pochmara, and Kevin Dolan.

Thank you to Courtney Allen for the opportunity to write this book, Amanda Gambill for her guidance, and to the entire Wiley team who really make this book shine.

I dedicate this book to Malcolm and Edith Sillars.
