      Jumpstart your Photography in 30 Minutes - Ray Salisbury

      DEDICATION

      This e-book is dedicated to my cherished wife Lynette, who keeps the home fires burning while I chase the light. She is the reason I keep coming home from lonely mountain summits; from wild, windswept beaches and from lengthy road-trips with my camera.
