More DescriptionThis is an anthology of images created over a six year period. Including images made with multiple cameras and covering multiple genres - The following is an excerpt from the book's preface:The 'lesser works' referred to by the title are those pictures in a series that were overshadowed by others taken at the same time. When one image becomes emblematic of an event, the others become bit players. Some of these emblems have lost their meaning or had it altered by their transformation into 'big-hitters'. (The greatest hits that are here are here because I love them, and because they have managed to retain their original pathos). Some of these images aren't strong enough to stand alone, but they gain strength when viewed as part of a collection. They are bolstered by the camaraderie of a mutual presentation and are here to (hopefully) create a sense of a uniting eye.
