All about Saul Leiter by Motoyuki Shibata, Saul Leiter
5.0
I had this book on my nightstand for quite a while and, now that I officially finished it, I feel like I need to start it again.
This is a awe-inspiring beautiful book of photography. Saul Leiter was a painter-photographer, both literal, as he wanted to become a painter, and figuratively. His photography is all about capturing the fleeting moment, the myriad of shadows, the colors. It also captures the spirit of the city in a way that makes me go to the train station and ride into NYC at right this moment. The energy and the stillness of if all, at the same time.
Brilliant body of work, absolutely recommended to any photography lover.
