Product Description

Review

"Photography as history.  The peerless Reuters collection tells a multi-stranded story - of celebrity, hardship, normality, beauty and brutality - through the lenses of the world's leading photo-journalists."                  The Guardian

Reviews of the first editon

"A tribute to the ingenuity and cunning that a photographer has to combine, along with an eye for a picture, in order to get a brilliant image." The Independent

"A veritable hail of the most powerful and evocative photographs to have pummeled the public’s awareness of news and events over the last 15 years."Metro

"A masterclass in the photojournalists’ art."

Amateur Photographer

"…the raw, frontline images which catch the drama of history-changing moment." The Big Issue

"Pictures marking most of the world’s great events over the past 15 years, mostly of conflict, but also of great beauty, the work of masters of their art."

Product Description

Another stunning selection of the Best of Reuters Photography

"Photography as history.  The peerless Reuters collection tells a multi-stranded story - of celebrity, hardship, normality, beauty and brutality - through the lenses of the world's leading photo-journalists."                  The Guardian

The Art of Seeing 2 offers a fascinating and visually stunning selection of pictures taken by Reuters photographers who have had the vision and ability to capture extraordinary incidents or moments of beauty. This new collection comprises a story with many threads: celebration, adversity, hope, triumph and humanity - and offers some of the most spectacular and significant images you will ever see.

The Art of Seeing 2 showcases the two essential characteristics of the top photojournalist - a nose for a story and an eye for a photo. This second installment of the fascinating and visually stunning best of Reuters photography collection features a sharper and brighter selection than even the hugely successful first edition.

    The Art of Seeing 2 will be an essential purchase for the keen photographer, and a perfect gift  for anyone who appreciates great photos.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A few exceptional images and a lot more good ones..., 11 Dec 2005
    By P. White (Cambridge, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
    (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
    This is a quality book with some truly wonderful and though provoking images mixed in with a lot more less impressive but still very worthwhile pictures.
    My only irritation is one that applied to most books of this kind: why print an image across two pages if the composition is ruined by the 'split'. I'd rather have a smaller but intact image please.
    In summary: if you buy this you'll not be disppointed.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The art of the art of seeing, 9 Sep 2004
    'The Art of Seeing' - a title guaranteed to make a person think twice about picking the book up. Surely it has got to be pretentious twaddle about images, or perhaps the same stuff one has seen a hundred times before. But then 'Reuters''. Mmmmn.

    What a book. Absolutely lovely. I want to cut the book up and put the pages on the wall for inspiration. The photographs absolutely do live up the title. Without a word of explanation the photographs (no, not every one, but a lot of them) state what a photograph is. How it takes elements from a scene and makes the whole more than the parts. If you want to take photographs, buy this book and drool.

    Blending the best of journalism and photography, this book has the most stunning photographs. Full of colour and vibrance this book is a fantastic recap of recent world events. This is a book well worth reading by both photographers and appreciators of beauty.
