Cool Edinburgh Bookshop

After a morning doing street photography, photographing the performers of the Edinburgh Fringe, I took refuge in a specialist bookshop called Beyond Words,  which turns out to have an impressive collection in photographic publications of all kinds - journalism, sports, portraiture and instruction manuals.  Check it out.

Through browsing I encountered the work of a contemporary model photographer I wasn't familiar with, a photographer whose work I loved.  check out Richard Avedon and see if you agree with me.

It occurs to me that most photographers either alive today or dead but with a considerable following will have their own website, so my next project will be to assemble a collection of links to the photographers I love.
