Actually that's what I do.  I *think* I've got "this is the aperture ring"
down pat.  :-)  What I do is study the photos that I like, read any
accompanying text 'bout how it was done, and then next time I go out "on a
shoot" I try that particular technique.  Then, when I get the results, I
compare my shots to the one in the book.

Or, was your point that the photos in that book aren't all that great??? 
:-)

Regards,

Chris
