It designates its audience in the very title. The book focuses on being at the right place at the right time, which is an uncommon element in travel books. This is especially important for a place like Maui, because, as Peebles points out, the weather is unpredictable. He starts out with “How I Photograph Maui,” which provides a basic overview of what to look for when setting up a shoot. Then he plunges into technical information about which cameras, lenses and settings are appropriate for the area and what to watch for on the island in terms of weather, theft, locals, nature and wildlife. After this, the book is divided into locations: The Hana Coast, Central Maui, Haleakala and Upcountry, etc. Each of the sections has a description of the area including sleeps, eats, activities and events as well as good overlooks and hikes. He drops in information about when to be where for best pictures, suggestions for equipment, exposure time and setup. The book is easy to read and not too overwhelming. The pictures are beautiful. My only suggestion would be to include a little bit more of the historical context of the places.\" -- Judges' comments - 2012 SATW Foundation Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism Awards","brand":"WW Norton \u0026 Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49528389075287,"sku":"9780881509373","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780881509373.jpg?v=1731871439","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/photographing-maui-9780881509373","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
