Photo Block – 047/365, originally uploaded by JMaz Photo.
Some years ago my father-in-law gave me this photography book as a gift. It’s an interesting book as it covers hundreds of photographers throughout time, alphabetically, featuring just one exemplary image from each with a brief description of their work or style. More inspirational than educational, I’ve enjoyed picking it up every few years and exploring it a bit more.
A bit hurried for today’s daily photo, I had turned to my shoot list and was looking for some of those aged decaying gray books we have on the shelf. Maybe I would dig that old worn foreign currency that once served as someone’s bookmark. My studio table had some of the kids’ toys on it, and this colorful paperback kind of called to me, so I piled up the toys with the book on top and called it a scene.
