Why read it?
1 author picked Luminance as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book cemented my commitment to being a photographer. The images are stunning jewels frozen in silver from ancient places in countries like India, Ireland, Egypt, & Tibet.

From Nubar's list on the poetry in documentary photographs.
