A documentary style photo book giving an insight into the lives and culture of the people of Niger, West Africa. Recorded whilst the Author worked alongside the Red Cross documenting food insecurities within the country.
Always difficult this one - how one is perceived by the world at large !
Although interested in many areas of photography, documenting the lives of people is where I'm focused at right now. I always struggle however as maybe many photographers do, as to whether the image or the story comes first. Most definately an image can stand alone, but there can be a wealth of information that can indeed change a perception and should be known. It's about recording the truth at the camera end with the very minimum of post production editing.
Great subject Bruce and final results of the book preview look good to me... just made recieved my first book "TURKISH DELIGHT" which is similar idea. I am a pro chef and love photography when travelling...this book is on the people of the food market in Fethiye region of Turkey.
