Harry Gruyaert – Edges
Why I love this book (in mind-popping order):
- The Edges book is in landscape orientation, which avoid pictures breaking over the book the fold in the middle.
- Harry Gruyaert takes pictures that many consider boring.
- Grainy-ness is a great feature.
- Gruyaert does not shy away from taking pictures from a distance – versus close Robert Capa quote (mis)interpretation “a picture is not good enough if it is not close”.
- The colors.
- The broccoli picture.
- Simplicity (deceptive).
