The technical aspects of photography could arguably present the steepest learning curve of any hobby and even takes us into the ethereal world of 'Art' since the very word 'Photograph' means 'Painting with light'
Therefore I am directing this thread at those of us who have no professional standing, (which I think could be the majority on this forum) in an effort to see what reading matter you resort to in order to lessen the steepness of the curve.
Since we have a 'Show us your ......' thread on Lenses. Ducks and even Boxes, why not have a thread showing us what 'Photography' books you have benefitted from.
Here is my small pile, to which I would have to add a couple of magazines, but they don't display their titles so readily on the spine, but could possibly be a montage display for the future.
