Title: blurry photos
Product review: This book would be great if the photos were sharp. Unfortunately they are not. It makes me envious because other reviewers apparently got a better copy than I did. Looking at the book's info page, I seem to have the 21st printing. Maybe I could search out an earlier printing.UPDATE: 30 Oct 2012. I was able to obtain a used copy of the 11th printing of the book. (This has a different cover photo.) Some of the item photos are better, some are not. Between the two copies, I think it will be possible to cull an acceptable photo of most of the specimens illustrated. I have to say though, compared to other field guides, encyclopedias, and handbooks which I have, this batch of photos is very uneven in grade, and sometimes less than marginal in quality.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
