Insight Guides have been inspiring travellers for over 40 years. The first Insight Guide, to Bali, pioneered the use of creative full-colour photography in travel guides in 1970 and the use of strong visual images has remained a hallmark of Insight Guides ever since. Last month, the publisher introduced Insight Guide to Travel Photography (£14.99, 320 pages), a lavishly illustrated practical guide for amateurs that revealed many tricks of the trade.
