First book

    First book, on the 3rd draft is now available at :-

    http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/605086

    Kept price under 30 euros, and it is only available in Hard back - to keep the price down it is non-profit for me. No wonder I'm always broke :-)

    Anyway glad to have got the book out before Paddy's day, and never believed I'd do a book, even though I did it myself .

    thanks all - the good thing about it being profit free, is i don't care about sales - I have ordered a few for people in Dublin, and 2 - 4 shops - but I have to pay up front - so I'm doing it on a tiny scale - as I'm pretty scint !!!


    Overall its a personal project , where I can say I at least got one book out in my lifetime - but I'm sure after Wales that might change - but its niice to do it with an untrained eye - as thats my philosophy to life

    Well Done Barry

    The preview looks very good.

    Are all the photos in the book in B&W ?

    I presume as they are all street style photos that no "model releases" were required to be obtained ?

    theres a few colours scattered, i'd rather pack in photography, than get everyone to fill in model release forms - spontainaty is what makes photography special for me

    Hows the sales of the book going Baz?

    Slow - certainly wouldn't have got rich if I was doing it to make a profit !!
    Having said that, thankfully, I have pretty much sold all copies that I ordered to Ireland - so in essence didn't lose money, which I guess means aim achieved
