Plenty of books out there , magazines too, check out National Geographic Photographers Field Guide as a handy resource you can carry with you. Or any of the Kodak books/ manuals. Get a subscription to a photo mag that you like and read it cover to cover each month. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY--PRACTICE, Carry your camera everywhere you go, and take lots of pix of everything that captures your vision in order to get better. Learning by doing , trial and mostly error is the best teacher. You'll be surprised at how well it works over time.
