Why read it?
1 author picked The Creation as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
From my school days, Ernst Haas’ photography has been a source of inspiration and exasperation, even intimidation.
Creation is his crowning glory, not only for the peerless elegance of his images, but also for his masterclass in pacing and book design. I love the boldness of a double-page spread with nothing but an arc of light.
I love the quiet studies in which not a blade of grass or minute drop of water is misplaced. It inspired my journey in photography before I even owned a camera, and right now I can shiver from an immersion in its magisterial vision.
From Tom's list on books to make you a better photographer but aren't about technique.
