Hi Pug

To start of this topic here it goes some starter books everyone should have....

1. Understanding close up photography

2. The Photographers eye

3. Perfect digital Photography 2nd ed.

I don't know of any ebooks, but I know Light, Science, Magic is an amazing book for learning how lighting works.

For the ones that dont know how rapidshare works, it is very simple.

click in the link, click on "free" if you dont have a premium account, wait 50 seconds or so, and press download, and you will get your file...

@ThePhilosopher Thank you for the tip, for the ones wanting it here it goes the third edition of Light, Science, Magic (An intro to Photographic lightning)

Light, Science, Magic

Ps: These ebooks are good for consideration purposes, if you really like it, just buy it...

My turn:

These are not like textbooks - the pages are individual tips to digital photography in random order.

They are quite good, I guess vol 1 & 2 are best.

Scott Kelby - Digital Photography - vol 1

Scott Kelby - Digital Photography - Vol 2

Scott Kelby - Digital Photography - Vol 3

Edit -I have found some more links to Photobooks, a mixed bag, one of them is "Learn to see creatively - Bryan Peterson" which I would guess is very good as he is a "guru". Have not read all these books, or looked at them - some like Glamour Photography ;-), etc and some "old" CS3 books.

However I guess it is no use showing the links if it is of no interest. This is a watch forum and probably not that interest in photo, as the books I showed over are good but more general, not specialised in macro.

Here is the list:

Bryan Peterson -Learn to See Creatively

D Evans, L Banks Classic Glamour Photography Techniques Of The Top Glamour Photographers

Digital Boudoir Photography

Focal Press Adobe Photoshop CS3 for Photographers May 2007

Focal Press Black and White in Photoshop CS3 and Photoshop Lightroom Aug 2007

Single-camera Video Production Media Manuals 4th Ed

Sybex Photoshop CS3 for Nature Photographers May 2007

The Five Cs of Cinematography Motion Picture Filming Techniques

The Photographic Eye (I know this is linked over, but all the books is in 4 links)

So if anybody is interested I'll get the links.
