Inspiration Leica Akademie (English and German Edition) [Heidi Mertens, Robert Mertens] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Inspiration Leica Akademie (English and German Edition) Review: Leica owners must have. - Brought this because Iโm totally besotted with my Leica M10-R. Itโs one of those books you read on a quiet evening. I like that it gives motivation to step out with your camera. For some reason I find Leica camera owners conservative. But I want to stretch boundaries with it. Astro, time lapse, etcโฆso I found this book and itโs excellent images the motivation I need. Review: The Book is Awesome, The Seller is Not. - Let me tell you about the great book first. The book is really good. Awesome even. It does what the title say, provides "Inspiration" for photographers who need some ideas thrown at them every once in awhile. It's a heavy well made book with thick paper and quality photos. It's also well written. Brief but less is more sometimes. Half of the text is in German, but for me it didn't bother me one bit. Let me just say that the 1 star is because the seller put a $65 book in an envelope...wait for it...USPS. I would like to say so much more, but I think you can see what I'm saying. The envelope was torn and the book damaged. I hope they got someone new in the shipping department (grin). Anyhow. I liked the book enough that I contacted the author and she provided another desertcart seller...so now I'm happy that I have an undamaged book.

I was skeptical about this book but decided to purchase - glad that I did. Very inspirational.
The book is laid out very simply. You have a genre of photograph(s) on a single page and a quick description about the shot and the photographer. The shots are amazing, and the color pops out. The write ups are inspirational. Highly recommend.

Typical Leica
A series of some good images and some bad with the typical formless verbiage on how to take "good images."
