Closer: Seeing the World in Details

by Michael Clinton

In Michael Clinton's earlier books - all travel photography - he has shown us the world in context, in long shots that describe people, places and things/architecture and design objects. In Closer he looks at the world through a telescopic lens, honing in on specifics to people, their cultures and their environments. An impulse item for the photographic and travel aficionado, this book is just a fun read.
