Breaking News: WITHIN THE FRAME Announced.
December 9th, 2008
I have been waiting for the green light to announce this for quite a while. Sometime in the last couple days Amazon.com listed my upcoming book for pre-order.
The book is called Within The Frame, A Journey In Photographic Vision. It’s a book about finding and expressing your vision photographically, specifically where people, places, and culture are concerned. It’s one part How-To, one part Why-To, and 100% PixelatedImage. If you like this blog, you’ll love the book. It’s being published under the Voices That Matter imprint, the same folks that brough you Joe McNally’s The Moment It Clicks, and Scott Kelby’s excellent books.
My hope for this book was to write something new, a book that hadn’t yet been written. I wanted it to be personal, inspirational, and full of real-world wisdom, the kind of book that might be truly important to photographers as they grow into their craft. As I re-read the drafts and plan to travel around the world in January to gather the photographs that will illustrate the book, I become increasingly excited about this project. It is decidedly not a book about travel photography, it’s a book about fitting your vision of people, places, and culture within the frame.
Closer to the time I’ll be doing a more official announcement, and no-doubt launching a give-away of some sort. The book is due for release in May/June and I’m pumped about it. I’ve read the thing and it’s really not bad. 
Looking forward to it.
So many new books and so little time equals a growing bookshelf of books to read.
Congrats David!
This is SO exciting, I’m really lost for words!
No doubt it will be a wonderful and inspiring book, and I’m very much looking forward to it, can hardly wait to hold it in my hands… Woohooo
Congratulations on the book! I think it will be very successful and appreciated by photographers interested in something new.
With so many tech/gear books out there, I’m definitely looking forward to it since it comes from someone who can “walk the talk”
Cheers!

Will it be released in Europe or should I buy it online via eBay or such?
That went straight to my Pre-order. While I hope that my fortitude permits me to wait, I really wish that I didn’t have to do so. I’d have liked to have found it in the mail today.
