Susanne Helmert’s My Morning Muse has a fantastic piece on The Importance of Photobooks.
A great look behind one of my favourite Gregory Crewdson images from the always illuminating Crewdson Trail Log. I never realised the subject in it was Lauren Ambrose of Six Feet Under / Servant fame…
Against Narrative, a new essay from Conscientious.
Another Place has a great gallery from John Spinks’ latest book, Harrowdown Hill, the site of a murder back in 2003 - Also the subject of a song by Radiohead. Spinks focused on eight different sites over the course of a couple of years, returning to photograph them and different times of the year etc. I love the way he uses light to seperate the various greenery in the images.
A little off topic from photography, but I often find Sarah Lavender Smith’s Colorado Running newsletter very inspiring, and this edition she posted a few weeks ago especially!
