New Photography I've been fortunate, in the last week, to have two clients decide it was time to weed some shelves. One is a retired photography book editor, the other a professional photographer. It's been a wonderful journey through shelves and unpacking piles of phenomenal books relating to photography and photographers.  Part of the Haul I won't bore you with the details but have listed some highlights below. Some are signed by the likes of Paul Caponigro and others. To see all of those new arrivals, hop over to this link: New Photography As always, the next time you're in the area make it a point to visit Craig Olson Books at 99 Main Street in Belfast, Maine, where we have a large selection of books in all subjects, and a few hundred on architecture, art, and design.
