 A man who master his work. October 23, 2008
From all the photography books in Barnes & Noble this is the book that attracted my attention and I bought it the second time I saw it.
A good picture is going to stay in you memory for ever and the pictures inside are of this kind.
Great Vintage Work March 30, 2008
An excellent retrospective of Stephen Shore work mainly from the 70's. Explores his vision from 35mm to large format 8x10 and how his vision was forced to change through his chosen tools for the work. Highly recommended for those looking for offbeat retro work.
I love it January 4, 2007

This is a very nice book featuring the worls of Stephen Shore. As usual Aperture put together a very nice book. The printing and binding are top notch.
If you have never seen the work of Stephen Shore you are in for a real treat. His classic urban landscapes are very original and are beautifully done in this book

This is my new favorite book. I found it by accident as I didn't know Stephen Shore. The feeling, mood, and color in his images are so great. If you're like me who like anything 70's, then you will love this book.
His photography was considered very cutting edge at a time when all fine art was shot in black & white. Mr. Shore has a gift to make the ordinary like extra-ordinary and beautiful. If you love photography, you need to own this book! [...]
a TRUE master April 24, 2006
this is one of the first great works of color photography, and is still as fresh and significant as it was 30 years ago. forget all the imitators of today's contemporary scene, this was one of the first and is still better than anything to come along since (with the exception of sternfeld's american prospects which is equally great).
and for those who say this is snapshot photography, think again. view camera, deliberation, and intent here are razor sharp and NOT filled with accidents or casual images.
