Capture The Moment by Sarah Wilkerson and Giveaway.

"Capture the Moment" by Sarah Wilkerson  is a photography book on teaching you how to shoot wonderful photos particular with beginners in mind.  I will admit I don't have a decent camera to take photos lets put this way to keep my camera running it has to have a tooth pick kept in the area near the battery.  But I am wanting to learn on how to take a good photo especially when I can use my best friends camera.  I had a class that was taught by a friend of mine on basic photography so I am not going into this book completely blind.   So what is special about this book for me its a perfect combo of instruction with beautiful pictures taken by many different women all very talented.  I am a visual person if I don't see it or physical handle something I can't understand it at times.  This book really helped me to learn even more about taking a good photo.  I will admit at times I was more interested in looking at the photos than reading the tips.  Now there are words used in the photography world that the average person may not know such as aperture, well this book explains them.  Its nice to have such a wonderful book to be able reference while I learn to take beautiful photos. I highly recommend this book for anyone that is a beginner in photography or someone who needs to shake off some dust from their knowledge in photography.   I am giving away one copy of this book as I was accidentally shipped 2 books so here is your chance to own a copy of it.

A Curious Man by Neal Thompson review and giveaway.

"A Curious Man" by Neal Thompson is the biography on Robert Ripley.  If the last name sounds familiar is he the man behind the famous Ripley's Believe It or Not.  Ripley's Believe It or Not was always something I loved to read or go to the tourist spots to see.  I have always been a fan of odd and weird bits of life and history. So reading the biography on the man who created one of my favorite things as a child and adult caught my attention big time.  Ripley's life is very interesting I will warn you though he was not clean cut guy.  I love to read about some of the people that he inspired or some of the people he discovered.  I think my favorite was him inspiring a young cartoonist who is now more well known than Ripley (I am not going to give away the name of the cartoonist, you need to read it yourself). I highly recommend this book.  I recommend it so much  that I am giving away a copy of this book. Be warned this is my first giveaway hopefully it works correctly.
