The book you are now holding in your hand is not like any other Photo book that you’ve seen before. It’s not a standard coffee-table book, because it contains detailed descriptions about how every photo is made. But it’s not like an ordinary photography tutorial, either, because it doesn’t contain test images. In fact, it’s a combination of an exquisite coffee-table book and a “how-to” guide. Indeed, it’s a unique publication that happens to include over 100 extraordinary pieces of art.
This book doesn’t have a beginning or end. It’s not divided into sequential chapters. You can flip through the book in any way you like, stopping at an interesting page to learn more about how a certain photo was created.
Many photographers spend thousands of dollars on photographic gear. Yet, ultimately, most learn that a fantastic camera doesn’t automatically take fantastic photos. After a while, your expensive equipment will just be collecting dust, because you have lost interest. On the other hand, an experienced professional photographer can take fantastic pictures with pretty much any camera, even a mobile phone, for example. Photography is not about the equipment, it’s about imagination, communication, and a way of seeing. This book might be the best photography investment you have ever made, because it is filled with inspiration, and it will help you take the next step as a photographer and artist.
