4 out of 5 stars Scientist and adventurer.......2006-10-21

Of course, science is itself an adventure, but Van Dover went far beyond the usual. Among other things, she became one of the few dozen people on earth rated to pilot Alvin, the deep-sea submarine. That elite group is almost as small as the cadre of space shuttle pilots, and Van Dover was the first woman to enter that group.

This isn't directly about her science or her adventure, though. It's a bit harder to nail down, but I think it answers a question that many people don't think to ask of scientists: why do you do it? The pay isn't great, the bureaucracy can be crushing, and the rigors of career-building often conflict with family-building. And, I hate to say it, but it's not always a friendly world for a woman - especially the hairy-chested world of piloting the deep-sea submersibles. Some abstraction like "love of knowledge" can't really explain why someone does it.

Van Dover conveys parts of it, though. Science, if you're doing it right, gives a daily experience of awe that defies description. There's an added excitement in the physical challenge of deep sea exploration, and a marvellous freedom in stepping outside the map of what is known. She manages to convey that about as well as words can hope to. Sometimes, her writing doesn't rise to the level of her inspiration. That might be asking too much of any mere mortal, though. She does well enough, and speaks clearly to a non-scientific reader about what it is that keeps her going.

5 out of 5 stars Chorus of Tubeworms.......2006-09-19

Although no longer in print, I found a used copy of this captivating book. Join oceanographer Cindy Lee Van Dover, pilot of the Alvin, on an adventure to the deep-sea floor. The book is rich in detail with evocative black and white drawings. Especially enjoyable is the chapter: "A Chorus of Tubeworms" - "crimson plumes bloom atop long white tubes that emerge from cracks in glossy black lava...each worm a prize specimen arranged in a formal garden."

5 out of 5 stars Now available in paperback!.......2001-11-24

This is an excellent book on deep sea exploration! If you can find it, the hardcover version is definitely a keeper for future reference. In response to the review above...I believe that "Deep-Ocean Journeys" by Cindy Lee Van Dover is the paperback version of "Octopus's Garden" ("Deep-Ocean" is still available in-print). Also, if you enjoyed this book, read William Broad's "The Universe Below".

5 out of 5 stars great book on the deep sea.......2001-03-01

Too bad this book out of print! It is a neat little book on deep sea life, not just (but mainly) hydrothermal vent life. Very readable and while not too technical was very informative, with nice black and white illustrations. It added a very human touch to deep sea exploration, but was professional at the same time.

It is truly an amazing world beneath the surface of the sea, which by some counts makes up something like 97 percent of the biosphere of this planet. Great books help bring this alien but important realm to life. Recommended.

4 out of 5 stars Lack of Index.......2007-08-23

I would have given the Photographers Guide to Yellowstone & the Titons a 5 Star Rating if there was an index in the back of the book for easy reference while out in the field. It is difficult trying to remember what page the subject that your looking at is on. That being said, it is still a good reference book on the area and I do not regret buying it.

4 out of 5 stars Great for Novice Photographer.......2007-07-06

I bought this book to take along on a vacation trip to Yellowstone and the Tetons in mid-June 2007. I found it to be a great source to take photos of often photographed natural icons at different views and angles as well as some shots that the average traveler would not know about without this book. For instance I would not have known about the great shots that can be taken of the Mormon Row Barns with the Tetons in the background without this book. Perhaps more seasoned photographers may know about these different places but I for one would not have had a clue. I would have ended my vacation with the same shots of Yellowstone and the Tetons that everyone else has. The book took me off the beaten path where I got some great shots and expierenced the pleasures of getting away from the main road.

Other valuable information was the instructions on what time of day is best to shoot a certain shot, tips about exposure, and valuable tips about using filters that made my pictures stand out.

The book was concise, accurate, and very easy to follow and understand for an novice like me.

5 out of 5 stars Right-on, comprehensive.......2007-05-29

A caveat: I am a total amateur who takes pictures only during the one or two annual vacations using very simple equipment!

I just came back after 5 days at YS and GT parks. I was very impressed by how accurate Joseph's suggestions were -- in terms of the preferred times, angles and such to take pictures from. For example, Joseph had suggested taking pictures of the Old Faithful NOT from the benches in front of the Inn, but from the lodge side or from another angle which would include some colorful runoffs in the picture. I managed to pick up a rainbow with the waterfall from Uncle Tom's trail in my video (my still camera did nt pick it up). Other suggetsions also turned out to be as accurate and useful. More importantly, it is absolutely free of fluff and hence you can read it in a 2 hours flight to YS!

When I first looked at Joseph's pictures, I felt like there was probably a tad excessive use of filters to exaggerate the contrasts (the blues appeared to me to be a bit more blue than what would have been real). I never got to verify this as the sky was grey in YS and GT when I was there! Anyways, it is just a matter of taste. If you like Joseph's results (they are stunning), you can use the detailed input he provides on the use of the polarizer and the filters. Even otherwise, his suggestions on just the spots and times to take pictures from make the book very valuable.

The book is organized based on features -- waterfalls, geysers, animals and so on. That is probably useful for many. However, for family vacationers, coverage by location (Norris, West Thumb,...) would probably have been easier to use. I had to correlate the suggested times for photography from Joseph with the info I got on how to cover each location from another excellent book (YS Treasures by J Chappel).

Overall, I strongly recommend the book.

4 out of 5 stars A great guide.......2006-11-03

As a beginning photographer, I found this guide to be invaluable on our trip to Yellowstone this fall. It is clearly written and complete in its coverage of the park. I would recommend it for anyone from beginners to advanced intermediate photographers.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent for planning a photo trip to the parks!.......2006-03-17

I have used his book to schedule what I will visit and photograph at different times of the day and marked the good locations he described. It will stay in the front seat of my car to check as I go from place to place. I even made a schedule of what to see at sunrise, morning, afternoon, and sunset. I would like to have a book like this for every natural area I plan to visit and photograph. But I basically ignored his suggestions for filters and what seems like an overuse of a polarizer. Otherwise it has been a great help to plan my trip.

      My family love this book so much that I was looking for a hardcover version! The book is a collection of beautiful photos of baby animals which live in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons NPs. As my children are looking through the book I hear exclamations of "how cute!", "what a great photo!". This is a great souvenir for anyone who visits these parks and great inspiration for anyone who aspires to be a wildlife photographer.
