Review: Another Good Read

Just did a quick read on this book.  Dan has another good one here; but for me I think I will have to read it a couple times.  As the title says it is about soft light - meaning in most cases flash or strobe photography.  That is something I am still struggling with. A surprising section tells how to convert a cardboard box to a softbox for your flash.  I have seen many videos on this sort of thing, but never expected Dan to suggest this.  He also has a section in the back, not on lighting, but on composition pointers.  A refresher course ( something I need all the time ).  He covers things like vignetting, framing, keeping symmetry in your shots and reminds you to observe your background and surrounding area to prevent clutter.  Good book Dan, I just need to read it more than once and keep my camera handy while doing that.
