Can anyone tell me of a good book regarding sports, I'm looking for a book that not only got the photo but with a brief write up on how it was took. Anyone got any ideas I'm all ears.

Cheers
Matt

Can't think of any off hand that describe how, but lots of good books there.

While there are lots of books available, there are literally 1,000's of posts on this site and many others that do exactly what you are asking. They show photos and explain how they were captured and what they did to set up for them.

You would be hard pressed to find a book with as many different examples. It may take you some time to find exactly what you need, but when you do, print it or create a favorites link and you will over time build yourself a great reference.
