This collection is a record of that journey. Shot on his Samsung Edge, the striking black-and-white images in this collection convey the immediacy and lack of pretension that a cellphone offers in recording the world around us. For, as Dalrymple himself says, ‘Photography should always be about the eye, not the equipment.’Pages: 120 Available in: HardbackLanguage: EnglishTAGSArts and EntertainmentOthers
