    I love discovering photo books at the library. One I recently came across was Rough Beauty by Dave Anderson.

    One thing I have noticed about finding out of print books is that patience is the key. For example, Tony Hilton published a book on the early Bronica medium format cameras some years ago. When I acquired my S2A, I wanted to know more about the system. Amazon had a copy listed for a grand (US$), which is stupid. I continued my search and found a copy a month later for a reasonable price.
    Such will be true with the books you recommend, Alex. The library might be an alternative approach as well, although I find modern libraries often lack the books I'm looking for.
    Thanks again!

    Hi Alex, i think we can learn a lot of good Composition tips from Dwaune Michols and other Photography books. Thanks for introducing us to these books and photographers. 😊

    I just counted and realised I own just over 50 books related to photography. Some are books by the well known such as Lang and Meyerowitz and Frank. A few are by people I 'follow' now like Kyle McDougall and 'Zen Camera' by David Ulrich.. These were books I sought out but there are gems I got in auction lots such as 'The history of man' at MOMA and 'Creative Camera Art' by Max Thorek. 'Byler revisited' by SL Konttinen and 'Steelworks' by Julian Germain.
    I also have film photography books such as Adams trilogy and how to use an LF camera.
    Auctions and charity shops are great ways to expand your selection (not necessarily your collection) at a low price.

      And when they don't have a book I'm looking for at my local library, I ask a librarian if they can get that book from another library. And nearly every time they have.

    Do you know of, Wynn Bullock, or, Kathleen Barrows? Wynn's story is positively amazing. Neither name appears in the A-Z Photographers book, by the way. Oh and p.s., your photo book recommendations sure have lightened my wallet. Thanks a lot.

    I absolutely agree with your comment about taking note of references and follow up suggestions by other people. For example, I discovered the work of Lana Slezic in the book "The Fundamentals of Creative Photography" by David Prakel and eventually bought Lana's book about Afghan woman "Forsaken" - powerful images!! I understand your view of Liz Wells book, but even a sort of academic book, I still find bits and pieces very valuable. The same with (and highly recommended) book by Mary Warner Marien (Photography: A Cultural History). At present I struggle with the differences between "art" and "photography" (especially in the amateur club environment) but in this book, there is a lot of food for thought about the interdisciplinary aspects of art and photography. And do not underestimate the value of Gisèle Freund and her 1980 publication "Photography and Society". So, always follow up on references and recommendations by other readers and........ Alex :-)

    Tech note: your audio was very muddy here. Don’t know if it’s your sweatshirt muffling it or what. Mike is positioned incorrectly? Take a listen yourself….

    What, are you supposed to confine yourself to recommending cheap photography books? Don’t you already do enough? If a book is too expensive, there’s no lack of study material out here on the web that’s just a Google search string away. I sympathize with folks who are just starting out, but geeze.
