Dan Burkholder'). Edges slightly faded, otherwise an excellent copy. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 119 pp. Color photographs throughout.

New Orleanians want the world to see and respond to the destruction of their city and the suffering of its people - and yet so many images of so much destruction threaten a visual and emotional overload that would tempt us to avert our eyes and become numb. In The Color of Loss, Dan Burkholder presents a powerful new way of seeing the ravaged homes, churches, schools, and businesses of New Orleans. Using an innovative digital photographic technology called high dynamic range (HDR) imaging, in which multiple exposures are artistically blended to bring out details in the shadows and highlights that would be hidden in conventional photographs, he creates images that are almost like paintings in their richness of color and profusion of detail.
