Right on, Erich. They are really good for photos. Some of the technical info also seemed pretty good, but that's probaly due to the fact that some of the books cover very narrow subjects.
And on the photo captions, that's a common problem I've found in many cases, in many different volumes. It might actually be fun sometime- post a pic here that is commonly included in books, and we could see how many different captions we could find. Bet we'd all be surprised!
And I've been hearing about all the wildfires out west. Best of luck- hope everyone and everything is OK out there...
