Absolutely everything

Today 6th March is the UK version of world book day (info). So here are some books.

 

When Santa sees you have a camera which you evidently can't use very well, he tends to bring you stuff on photography.

 

Some of the books here are better than others. The fifth one up, that you can hardly see, is "Michael Freeman's Photo School: Portrait" — that's one of the good ones.

 

Otherwise, the Hockney book explains how artists like Caravaggio and van Eyck used lenses and mirrors to help create their paintings. And Tufte (6th one down) deals with aspects of graphic design, going well beyond just cooking up spicier pie-charts. The one below it with the unreadable title is Martin Parr's "Luxury".
