* Aimed at beginner contemporary photographers who are looking at the 'why' and 'how' of alternative process / antiquarian photography using contemporary examples from across the globe to illustrate why the work has an important place in photography.
* Unlike the competition, this book brings contemporary insight to a range of alternative processes / antiquarian photography, providing a comprehensive and accessible exploration of not only the methodological aspects of these processes but the conceptual thought behind them.
