No System is Vinca Petersen's photographic document of her life as a modern nomad. She tells us in her introduction, "Different people's lives are based around different things, ours is based around music. "For the last few years she has been traveling with a group of young people through Europe, organizing illegal musical events and raves. Living between cities in old vans and buses, they scavenge for abandoned structures, often on the cusp between urban and rural areas, where they can dance to loud techno music. The photographs present a fascinating look at modern tribal life, where technology-driven equipment and music, discarded industrial frameworks, and a nomadic lifestyle, rooted in ancient history, all come together.

In the world of digital photography, inspiration can come at any time. Great images are created behind the camera and then refined at the computer. “Photographers live in the moment when shooting, and I believe we do the same when in front of the monitor,” writes Kevin Ames, veteran photographer and Photoshop master. Building on his popular column in Photoshop User magazine, Kevin expands the scope of the original articles to include in-depth information about all aspects of digital photography. With this book, you’ll gain a focused yet thorough understanding of Adobe’s suite of digital photography applications–Photoshop CS3 (including the Camera Raw plug-in), Lightroom, and Bridge. You’ll not only learn what these powerful applications can do, you’ll also learn which one is best for a given task and see how the applications come together to allow you to work efficiently–all while creating and delivering stunning photographs. Whether dealing with workflow, organization, or truly creative enhancements, Kevin candidly shares his personal image-making process from start to finish. In addition, there are clear and illuminating explanations of many issues relevant to the digital photographer, such as the profound differences between RAW and JPEG, the many benefits of “shooting tethered,” and how lighting really works. Whether you’ve been shooting digital for years or you’re just making the switch from film, The Digital Photographer’s Notebook is an essential guide to managing your portfolio and creating head-turning photographs.

Zoo is a wild ride through the oeuvre of Swedish photographer Anders Petersen (born 1944), a racy edit of his work that has animals as its central theme. Whether they be conscious portraits of animals or a haphazard photographic encounter with a woman's legs in python-print tights, Petersen draws out the animal and animalistic in all that he sees. At a typical zoo we are the spectators, peering in on creatures as they go about their existence, mostly oblivious to our presence. But in Zoo, we find ourselves both behind and before the bars of the cage--with Petersen as the delighted zookeeper.
