Photography

Including an essay by Alexander McCall Smith In 2013, Master Magnum photographer was asked by the Macallan Masters of Photography to cast his artistic eye on the wiles and wonders of Scotland. Known for his capricious humour, black and white documentaries and portraiture, Erwitt (author of Dogdog) presents his findings in this wonderfully entertaining volume. Widely quoted throughout his long career, Erwitt's photographs speak for themselves.
"The whole point of taking pictures is so that you don't have to explain things in words....All the technique in the wold doesn't compensate for the inability to notice...A picture should be looked at -- not talked about."
