I love photography books, because the images inspire my photography, I love the photography tips, and some of the best books (in my opinion) have a story behind the images.
The Flowers With Wings digital photography ebook by Deborah Carney and Vinny O’Hare is a peaceful book that I found myself flipping through slowly. It’s perfect for someone who loves butterflies and at $4.99, it’s an affordable gift and stocking stuffer. What I love about the book is that it inspired an addition to my Photography Bucket List. I caught a portion of a documentary about the Monarch Butterflies and thought it would be amazing to capture a portion of their migration in South America. Until I get my act together and get my passport, I think I’ll visit a local butterfly exhibit and see what I can capture.
Flowers With Wings is fantastic for butterfly lovers and poetry lovers. This isn’t a how to photography book sharing tips on photographing butterflies, but the images are gorgeous and before I was halfway through, I was planning a trip to a butterfly exhibit.
I searched online for seasonal butterfly exhibits around the US and Canada so that you can plan a visit too. I’m not certain how complete or current this list is, but at least you have a start; visit my site for the list: http://www.kimberlygauthier.com/photography/flowers-with-wings-digital-photography-ebook-inspires-a-visit-to-the-zoo/8353/. So, what’s on your Photography Bucket List?
