Customer Review: Get inside the photographer’s mind…
… and what a photographer! Joe McNally has a well-deserved reputation as a photographer and is only slightly less well known as a teacher. But for those of us on this side of the pond, attending one of his workshops is, let’s face it, financially daunting. No matter. You can buy this book instead! Here is much photographic wisdom in book form - and (unusually, given the subject matter) a book that can make you laugh out loud and yet teach you at the same time. OK, so some of the shots are ones you’d never get to take yourself as an amateur (hanging out of a helicopter over the Hollywood sign with Michelle Yeoh takes some beating, and as for getting to meet Kermit in the flesh…). But then for others you *can* try and emulate, even if you don’t have all of the kit that Joe has available to him. And even if you can’t, well, then, as the publisher’s own blurb says, this book would look equally good on your coffee table.
Customer Review: From my blog From my blog:
There are plenty of books that follow a similar format to this. A picture, an anecdote and some information about how the image was taken. Micheal Grecco’s Lighting and the Dramatic Portrait is a good example of this style of book. Those of you expecting detailed recipe’s with lighting diagrams will be disapointed, the technical information is light but gets to the heart photo. This is by no means a criticism, The Moment it Clicks is absolutely jam packed with great photos, entertaining anecdotes and pithy quotes. Joe’s writes as though he’s sitting next to you in a bar, talking in a what I assume is a New York accent, there’s even a chapter dedicated to bar talk. Unfortunately, I’m unable to do accents when I’m reading to myself, so it comes across to me like Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins, but no matter, every page jumps out at you, and a lot of the insight he dishes out, will stick with you for life. The pictures, as Joe would say, are all shot with available light, any &*%%@^ light thats available, so there’s plenty to excite strobists and strobophobes alike. Did I mention that this book was packed? I have never seen a book of this style so packed with material. I was about half way through the 240 pages and thinking that this was incredibly generous, I would have been satisfied with half the amount of content. The geardos among you will drool over the photos and lists of Joe’s kit, which get a full four pages towards the end of the book and there is a colourful glossary of terms full of explanations of photographic terms and slang, as well as footnotes on the pages where the terms are used. Highly recommended

So your an amateur photographer, and need a reasonably price bag that going to make you “look good, and take better pictures… perhaps not! The i-nique dude bag (can be a dudette bag as well.. hence the pink colour!)is the perfect entry level photo bag for the smallest cameras on the market. So who needs a big bag anyway thats going to take up serious luggage space on your holiday, to fit all the paraphernalia that you dont really need! So keep it small and compact, get rid of the tag along nonsense that just gets in the way. Clip it onto your belt buckle so it does not even get classed as hand luggage when you check in for that long awaited holiday!
