Already well established in the fields of travel, journalistic, and advertising photography, Horst and Tina Herzig focus on Britain's dynamic capital city to give us a stunning visual survey in black and white. The results of their walks through London's streets, parks, and neighborhoods collected here are more than a simple documentary record of a time and a place. Interspersed among the many artfully composed photographs of London's most famous landmarks are dozens of pictures that capture the spirit and energy of Londoners themselves. Designed to fit in any briefcase or handbag, this portrait of everyday life in one of the world's great cities is also the perfect keepsake for any traveler.
Already well-established in the fields of fashion, journalistic, and portrait photography in his native Berlin, Bernd Obermann moved to New York City in 1996 to experience the city’s vibrant mix of culture, ethnicity, and race. For the next five years he ventured out of his apartment nearly every day, camera in hand, to explore what New York had to offer. The results of these walks through city streets, parks, and neighborhoods are collected in this paean to a place whose energy and spirit are as palpable as they are memorable. "When I take a photograph of somebody I am also making a photo of a deeper level of myself." Says Obermann, "I believe in acceptance and not in analysis." From the Bronx to the Battery, from poor to rich, young to old, Obermann’s images reflect his own fascination and sense of discovery.
