    Help with my master thesis

    Hi everyboby,

    i'm new in this forum and i hope to find some help.

    I'm doing a research about the large format photography because i want to analyze the market behind this particular field.

    I actually helping a printing office that has aldready produced some rare books of a famous photographer (Ahmet Ertug, does anybody know him?) and i would like to know if there are any other books like those.

    Can anybody give me some tips?

    Thank you all
    mary

    Check out Modern Books http://www.modernbook.com/static.html

    It might help to know what type of books you are referring to ( a link to an example, or a better description would be nice.)

    He is a modern photographer based in Turkey who seems to specialise in things with a islamic cultural background (buildings, architectual details, islamic works of art). Produces images to support book texts - as far as I can see. Plenty of data in the big book sellers' database.

    Pat O'Hara, based in Port Angeles, WA, works in 4x5 and has 15+ photo-essay books on the national parks, especially Washington state's NP's, and other subjects. He's known to hike days into the backcountry in Washington NP's for many of his shots. His Website is gone (or he forgot to pay the bill to renwew the domain name).
