El daguerrotipo de Toledo

This is an anthropological essay that studies social dynamics of Mexicos city from the perspective of its inhabitants. An analysis about the relationship of their everyday life with the history of the city is made from questionnaires and the exhibitions of images to a group of people- taxi drivers, traffic cops, deliverymen of goods, students, housewives, street sellers and middle class motorists.

These modern and unconventional photographs portray an Italy that is very different from the one most people are accustomed to seeing on postcards. In this book, Italy and its heritage of nature, history, culture and humanity are presented from a unique vantage point — the sky — with pictures taken by two of today's most respected specialized photographers.

An intriguing collection of unposed and engaging color portraits of people from all backgrounds and corners of the globe by an award-winning photographer includes the famous "Afghan Girl" photograph and equally memorable images ranging from a bejewelled Indian bride to a Paraguayan cowboy--255 photos in all.

"Los buenos fotógrafos dominan su entorno. Los grandes fotógrafos saben cómo componer sus imágenes. Los mejores fotógrafos buscan sus propios medios, o "caminos", para revelar la verdadera naturaleza del sujeto. Este libro trata de esos caminos y de cómo encontrar el propio."--Back cover.
