New release from Craft & Vision – Iceland A Monograph

tdjohnson — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 14:34:39 +0000

Craft & Vision has just released the new ebook by David duChemin “Iceland A Monograph The Print and Process Series”. Mr. duChemin provides us with an incredibly intimate look into the creative process that a dedicated photographer goes through in practicing his craft. The Photographs are outstanding and are accompanied by a detailed description of the technical details and emotional considerations behind each one. Mr. duChemin also espouses the benefits of just playing with your craft – “Creativity is one big ‘what if,’ and the more we engage our craft with a sense of play, the more creative and unique our results.” I thoroughly enjoyed reading and studying the photographs in “Iceland A Monograph”
