Good overview of beginning photography with lots of great picture examples.

Great, wordy review of concepts. I think I like better Greengo's videos with CreativeLive.

Editor: You missed including the illustration of the exposure triangle

Remaining question:
Per ch.32 hyperfocal distance suggestion to "focus on a point that is double the distance to your nearest subject" (p.94) fails to help me distinguish the two cases -- why sometimes this plane falls 1/3 into the depth of focus and other times 1/2 of the way. (The case in which the focal plane to fall midway through the depth of field in focus is news to me.)
