THE IDEA
The full-page images thoughtfully relate to the texts. They are not an attempt to illustrate the text but to ask questions about image-making.
There are portraits, landscapes, still-lives, and documentary images. The book is 112 pages,
218 mm x 218mm, bound to lay flat on opening.
Its natural audience are students of the medium including amateurs;
*it is appropriate for university level discussions and for advanced amateurs,
and for those who appreciate the beauty of the medium.
It is entertaining and educative but not overly technical, appropriate for artists, writers and theatre practitioners of other media.
