  1. Not a good excuse, but I have been too busy working lately to look at pictures. I have a stack of books sitting for months waiting to be viewed. I was moved to open the "In Flagrante" book on books thanks to the post. To say it is a powerful image and book is an understatement! Makes Tom Wood's work (that I love) look soft-edged. Honestly, I never heard of Kris Killip -- but should have. I will spend the day looking at pictures/books. Thanks.

    PS, I read on-line that images were made on a 4 x 5. The prints must be wonderful to look at too.
