Do you have any books to recommend? I enjoy landscape photography and candid street photography. I'm leaving on a 2 week camping trip in some pretty beautiful mountain country (British Columbia) and possibly badlands in Drumheller, Alberta. I'll have a few weeks to read and take photos, get back on track. Thanks for everyone's kind words!
