A photography master at the height of his craft. Brilliant composition and humor over hundreds of gorgeous B&W photographs made by Elliott Erwitt and his Leica. If you want to understand why people still long for the look, romance and feel of real B&W film photography, check out this book!
An incredible collection of what I consider the best street/documentary photos ever. Erwitt can do it all: humor, gravity, perfectly timed glimpses. My only complaint is the print quality and the printing across the gutter. Personal Exposures is printed much better and has a great intrduction by Erwitt, but I like this selction of photos better.
Photography with a sense of humor. I pulled out and framed a couple of these.
One of my photographer heroes... shoots commercial and personal... no aesthetic hangups... and keeps his sense of humor throughout.
A book of photographs, moments seen through a lifetime behind the lens, poignant images, humorous, witty, and, above all, always creative.
