Today's book views were especially inspiring. I've had the pleasure and honor of knowing the creators of two of the books I was purusing (Jayne Hinds Bidaut and Paul Himmel).
And I only wish I had been around to know Steiglitz and Mapplethorpe, who worked in the neighborhood.
Apps are cool, but nothing beats the touch, smell and overall tactile experience of a large gorgeous photo book.
