Magnum Degrees & Earthlings By Richard Kalvar
wow... u have so many photography books...
anyway just curious, do you store your book collection inside dry cabinet?
No bro, just normal storage... afterall, these books are quite easily available and no where near collector's! haha...
Books provide fresh inspiration for me, so I guess the more the merrier!
I reading these at the moment:
1. Looking in -The Americans
Well, we all know The Americans but this one explains the story behind The Americans. An excellent recommendation
2. Magnum story
Another nice read,featuring photographers at Magnum. More if you're into understanding the different Magnum photographers story; how they started out, the big breaks, their definitive shots etc
3. William Eggleston Guide
I am a fan of his, so much so I did a shot to honor him lol!

Sure bro, you know where to find me!
Will pop by your school's library to check it out one of these days!
I thought the RF forum would be the best place for this.
Just downloaded Erwin Puts ebook about Leica history, cameras and lenses from his website for the glorious price of 6 euros paid by paypal. I think it's very similar to the Leica Compedium in bookstores, but this is the cheapo ebook version and all the funds go to him too. Over 600 pages inside, I read about 200 pages this morning before I finally dragged myself out of bed to eat breakfast! Here's the link if anyone's interested (http://www.imx.nl/photo/code/index.html)
If you guys have any other ebooks to recommend, feel free to share. I prefer ebooks because I bring my ipad to work everyday and it's really convenient to read.

i have been buying old 60s and 70s books from amazon,
mostly from people i want to emulate. there is a very
good photo journalist handbook which is titled
"Photojournalism: The Professionals' Approach, Fourth Edition (Paperback)
by Kenneth Kobre "
This 4th edition (year 2000) covers film as well as the emerging digital technology,
and alot of useful stuff for budding PJs. You can buy it for under a dollar used.
I ship it to my vpost account in the usa and pay for shipping to singapore.
