Hardcover. This Book of Images comes as a true storm, full of ideas on how to think differently about photography and context. How they can blend in with each other, enhance each other or clash with each other, creating an adventure that goes far further than basic, passive viewing. Images on buildings, under water, up in the sky, printed, projected, still, moving, tiny or extremely large. You can touch them, smell them, play with them and immerse in them. This is a celebration of photography in its greatest form.
