I didn't attend any photography lessons. Simply because my work and my family don't allow me to adhere to the fixed schedules of classes. I can only depend on books for tips and techniques, and through websites or newsgroups for answers to my questions. I prefer it this way since I can learn at my own pace.

Here are the books I bought and refer to very often. I will not put up any reviews since these are generally very popular books. Many of their reviews can be found at http://www.amazon.com, which is where I bought most of my books on-line. Don't forget to visit the local libraries too.
