The Walter 23 thread (http://www.largeformatphotography.in...ad.php?t=47205 got me thinking about photograpy and fiction. assuming I am right, I actually found his fictional story surrounding the "found" image compelling and intriguing, making we want to know the rest of the story. If it had been posted anywhere but here that image and story may have flown. I apologize if I am wrong about this assumption.
Most photography is documentary in nature. Are there good examples of photo-fiction? Witkin perhaps or Cindy Sherman, although there is no extended literary component beyond the titles. Are there any photo books with a larger literary component that do this well?
