Hi Blake, enviable list of books. I suppose these are your most favorite of the books you purchased this year regardless of publication date. Correct? The Winogrand acquisition is very intriguing but I don't dare to ask how much you paid for it.

Hi Zisis. This list has nothing to do with favorites or books bought recently. Most of them I've never seen in person and I have no opinion about their quality. Look more closely at the title and contents, and you'll probably notice the theme.

I was lucky enough to get the Winogrand book back when it was published in 2002. Buying it now seems ridiculous.
