Look At This If You Love Great Photography Summary

Look At This If You Love Great Photography: A critical curation of 100 essential photos * Packed with links to further reading, listening and viewing to take your enjoyment to the next level by Gemma Padley

Featuring 100 of the best photographs ever captured on camera, Look At This If You Love Great Photography is a must read for anyone who appreciates the power of the image.

In this beautiful guide to some of the most compelling photographs ever taken, photography journalist Gemma Padley offers concise, insightful summaries of just what it is that makes each one so special.

Having written for some of the most important publications on modern photography, Gemma draws on her expert knowledge to reveal the fascinating stories behind these incredible pictures, focusing in on why each image chosen represents such a high point in photographic history.

Uniquely curated to offer a fresh perspective on the medium, expect to see pictures from legends of the art form, including Ansel Adams and Martin Parr, alongside cutting-edge examples from the studios of the most creative photographers operating today.

Whether it's gut-punching photojournalism that changed public opinion and made us question who we are, or images that rewrite the rules of photography and blur the lines between other art forms, this is a penetrating rundown of the pictures that really matter and you need to see them.
