One of a series aimed at readers aged 9+, who are beginning to take an interest in hobbies. The books are intended to show readers what they can do with simple equipment which they may already have to hand. This book is mainly concerned with things to do with your photos once you have taken them. Instead of keeping them in a drawer or putting them into an album, mount them as panoramas or montages, make birthday or Christmas cards, illustrate your diary or draw up your own family tree. More adventurously, you can try shooting A Day in the Life of ... one of your friends, or making a story board. Two spreads on common mistakes give hints on how to avoid the most common errors and the assignment spreads explain how best to arrange different types of shot, including simple panning for sports shots. The author, Russ Malkin, is a professional photographer and has concentrated largely on sports, fashion and beauty photography for both national magazines and newspapers. He organizes seminars on fashion photography and appears regularly on BBC television in Going Live .
