Es begann mit einem Social Media Post: Auf Instagram teilte ein Ureinwohner St. Paulis mit, er habe den Kiez noch nie so leer gesehen. Für den Hamburger Fotografen Tim Oehler der Impuls, sich die Kamera zu schnappen und diese Leere in ihrer surrealen Ästhetik zu dokumentieren. Nächtelang begab er sich von Mitte März bis in die ersten Aprilwochen auf Motivsuche und bewegte sich dabei in allen Himmelsrichtungen durch die Stadt. Zum Flughafen im Norden, zum Horner Kreisel im Osten, die Elbchaussee entlang Richtung Westen. Überall herrschte absolute Stille, minutenlang keine Menschen, keine Autos. Und wo sonst auch in der Nacht das Leben pulsiert, waren auf einmal Langzeitbelichtungen möglich - auf den Ausfallstraßen, entlang der Magistralen, auf den weiten Plätzen und an den touristischen Hotspots der Hansestadt. In diesem Bildband trägt Tim Oehler, seit langen Jahren fotografischer Dokumentarist der Nacht, nun die besten Aufnahmen seiner Bilderreise durch das stillgelegte Hamburg während der historischen Ausnahmezeit im Frühjahr 2020 zusammen. Fremd und vertraut zugleich, fügen sich die Bilder des mehrwöchigen Lockdowns und der Abwesenheit jeder urbanen Mobilität zu einem Stadtporträt von bizarrer Schönheit, das in vergleichbarer Form wohl nie wieder zu fotografieren sein wird.

"The real charm of Byways isn't playing spot-the-location as Deakins dabbles between takes, but the window it opens onto his youthful eye. You can trace his drive from an early age to catch the light at its best - or wait for it - all night if necessary." - The Telegraph "...his first monograph, Byways, looks not to his revered cinematography career, but his decades-long habit of taking still photographs. Among them are breathtaking landscapes and moments of stillness, interspersed with photographs imbued with wit thanks to the playful possibilities of scale, framing and timing. It's the kind of dry humour that sits passers by in conversation with monuments and miscellaneous objects in the street, or captures a canine rendition of Cartier-Bresson's seminal image Behind The Gare Saint-Lazare. - Creative Review "Candid close-ups, wide-angle landscapes, and dynamic long exposures, his monochrome photographs display a variety of approaches and techniques, yet first and foremost, testify to the remarkably perceptive artistic gaze that has seen him nominated for an Oscar on fifteen separate occasions (winning twice). Thoughtful, poetic, and profoundly arresting, they display his distinct enigmatic sensibility, and presented for the most part with little or no information or context (index aside) form a compelling visual soliloquy that conveys with great eloquence, the profound power of the still image." The Independent Photographer "An intimate introduction to the man behind the lens" - The Times Portraits and landscapes from the cinematographer famed for his work with Sam Mendes and the Coen brothers This is the first monograph by the legendary Oscar-winning cinematographer Sir Roger Deakins, best known for his collaborations with directors such as the Coen brothers, Sam Mendes and Denis Villeneuve. It includes previously unpublished black-and-white photographs spanning five decades, from 1971 to the present. After graduating from college Deakins spent a year photographing life in rural North Devon, in South West England, on a commission for the Beaford Arts Centre; these images are gathered here for the first time and attest to a keenly ironic English sensibility, also documenting a vanished postwar Britain. A second suite of images expresses Deakins' love of the seaside. Traveling for his cinematic work has allowed Deakins to photograph landscapes all over the world; in this third group of images, that same irony remains evident.

The Academy Award-winning director of Free Solo and National Geographic photographer presents the first collection of his iconic adventure photography, featuring some of the greatest moments of the most accomplished climbers and outdoor athletes in the world, and including more than 200 extraordinary photographs. "An extraordinary work of art."-Jon KrakauerFilmmaker, photographer, and world-class mountaineer Jimmy Chin goes where few can follow to capture stunning images in death-defying situations. There and Back draws from his breathtaking portfolio of photographs, captured over twenty years during cutting-edge expeditions on all seven continents-from skiing Mount Everest, to an unsupported traverse of Tibet's Chang Tang Plateau on foot, to first ascents in Chad's Ennedi Desert and Antarctica's Queen Maud Land.Along the way, Chin shares behind-the-scenes details about how he captured such astounding images in impossible conditions, and tells the stories of the legendary adventurers and remarkable athletes he has photographed, including Alex Honnold, the star of his Academy Award-winning documentary film Free Solo; ski mountaineer Kit DesLauriers; snowboarder Travis Rice; and mountaineers Conrad Anker and Yvon Chouinard. These larger-than-life images, coupled with stories of outsized drive and passion, of impossible goals with life or death stakes, of partnerships forged through incredible hardship, are sure to inspire wonder and awe.

Ward 81, photographed in 1976, was Mary Ellen Mark's first independent long-term project. Mark and writer Karen Folger Jacobs set out to document the lives of the women in this locked ward at the Oregon State Hospital in Salem-the only one in the state. Every day for five weeks, Mark photographed and Jacobs interviewed the women on Ward 81. At night they slept in an empty adjacent ward.Ward 81: Voices, an expanded edition of the original 1979 book, includes previously unpublished photographs, excerpts from interviews with patients and recorded conversations between Mark and Jacobs, as well as new essays examining the influence of their project. Ward 81 has always been considered one of the best examples of Mark's ability to portray subjects living on the edges of society with compassion. The inclusion of the women's voices gives invaluable insight, not only into the lives of the patients, but also into Mark and Jacobs' experiences and the challenges they faced during their collaboration.

Man sagt, Schönheit liege im Auge des Betrachters. In The Touch präsentieren Kinfolk und Norm Architects ein Designverständnis, das davon ausgeht, dass gute Gestaltung nicht nur den visuellen, sondern auch alle anderen menschlichen Sinne anspricht.Was haben ein Museum in Marrakesch, ein Mid-Century-Apartment in Berlin und ein Friedhof im Norden Venedigs gemeinsam? In The Touch setzen sich der Kinfolk-Mitbegründer Nathan Williams und Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen vom Büro Norm Architects mit dem Gedanken auseinander, dass beeindruckende Orte wie diese allesamt auf Gestaltungsaspekte setzen, bei denen der Mensch und sein sinnliches Erleben im Mittelpunkt stehen: Materialität und Haptik, Licht und Farbigkeit, Authentizität und Gemeinschaftsgefühl. Mit Einblicken in einige der betörendsten Gebäude und Innenräume der Welt bietet The Touch eine Fülle an Inspiration in Form von eindrucksvollen Fotografien, philosophischen Essays und praktischen Expertentipps.

When photographing people, you can have a great composition, perfect light, and the right camera settings, but if your subject doesn't look right-if the pose is off-the shot will not be a keeper. Posing is truly a crucial skill that photographers need to have in order to create great photographs. If you're looking to improve your ability to pose your subjects-whether they're men, women, couples, or groups-best-selling author and photographer Lindsay Adler's The Photographer's Guide to Posing: Techniques to Flatter Everyone is the perfect resource for you.In the first half of The Photographer's Guide to Posing, Lindsay discusses how the camera sees, and thus how camera angle, lens choice, and perspective all affect the appearance of your subject. Lindsay then covers the five most important things that ruin a pose-such as placement of the hands, and your subject's expression and posture. If you can look out for and avoid these five things, your skills (and your images) will quickly improve. Next, Lindsay dives into "e;posing essentials,"e; outlining her approach to start with a "e;base pose,"e; then build on that to create endless posing opportunities. She also discusses posing the face-with specific sections dedicated to the chin, jaw, eyes, and forehead-as well as posing hands.In the second half of the book, Lindsay dedicates entire chapters to posing specific subject matter: women, men, couples, curvy women, families and small groups, and large groups. In each chapter, Lindsay addresses that subject matter's specific challenges, provides five "e;go-to poses"e; you can always use, and covers how to train the eye to determine the best pose for your subject(s). In the final chapter of the book, Lindsay brings it all together as she teaches you how to analyze a pose so that you can create endless posing opportunities and continuously improve your work
