Lydia Panas' portfolio The Mark of Abel "For three years, I invited families in various groupings to stand before my lens. I was curious to see what would happen. Nothing was deliberate or planned. These diverse groupings of children and adults, relatives and close friends, stood graciously before my lens, taking positions in relationship to each other and to me." — Lydia Panas

Interview: Steve Fitch
"In reading the introduction of his first book Diesels and Dinosaurs, I get a vivid visual image of a young Steve Fitch speeding down a two lane highway in back of his father's 1951 Buick. This lead me to recount my own experiences as a child watching the road fly by out of the window of my parents car — I believe that experience must be stuck in many peoples minds. My focus was always trees silhouetted against the sky — Fitch was fascinated with small towns, glowing neon signs and 18-wheelers roaming the highway." — Anne Kelly

A Closer Look — In the Shadow of Things
"I first looked at Leonie Hampton's In the Shadow of Things in December when it arrived as part of the influx of Best Book selections. I ended up not writing about it at the time, perhaps needing some distance to digest it. Months later, Hampton's images have really stuck with me — some have become locked into my visual memory. The book was a little unnerving to get into; the images are so obviously personal that the book requires time, a chance to open yourself up and connect with it, to appreciate what Hampton has created." — Sarah Bradley

 photo-eye Book Reviews

|
from the book Interior Relations
|
Interior Relations by Ian van Coller
"Always remember that you haven't fully experienced a book until you open its jacket. Interior Relations is an outstanding example of this. Its publisher, photographer Richard Renaldi, is a big book fan; the small handful of books released by his indie imprint pay close attention to design (issuing from Andrew Sloat) and to the physical experience of reading. Thus, a Charles Lane Press issue, like that from most quality photobook publishers, begs attention as a sculptural, signifying object, influencing and reiterating the implications of the photographs it carries." — George Slade from the review of Interior Relations by Ian van Coller

from the book Supercell
|
Supercell by Kevin Erskine
"Kevin Erskine is not your average storm chaser. While a new generation of thrill seekers barrel down gravel roads in vans equipped with digital imaging equipment and the latest satellite technology, Erskine relies primarily on intuition and his large format film camera to document the fury that unfolds in the sky. His images come straight from the camera to the pages of his latest monograph Supercell. He doesn't spend hours polishing and retouching them on the computer, so these photographs function as art and as a strict documentation of meteorological phenomena." — Daniel W. Coburn from the review of Supercell by Kevin Erskine

Donald Weber: Interrogations
"After a lone trip to Chernobyl in 2005, Donald Weber soon returned to
the abandoned site of the nuclear disaster and spent the next six years
in Russia and Ukraine photographing the ruins of the unstoppable storm we call history.
Travelling and living with ordinary people who had endured much, and
survived everything, Weber began to see the modern State as a
primitive and bloody sacrificial rite of unnamed Power." — the publisher
