Summary: one of the best photography books i've ever bought!
Comment: this book is great. Wim Wender's opening prose about the art of photography is worth the price alone. delve into the book further, and you are gifted with some really great travel documentary photographs with short prose describing the images. i like this, as a photographer, i am often very interested to hear the story behind the photographs. the art of the slide show presentation is a lost art in america yet this book somehow evokes that type of discovery and storytelling.
featuring both color and black and white photographs, and many of them done as a series, the book's paper texture and image reproduction is top notch.
the physical size of the book is perfect-it's easy to pick up and read or carry with you, and the images are easy to view.
in many ways, this book seems very cinematic. being a film director, Wender's sees each still image as the first frame of a movie and it shows.

Summary: a journey about time and space
Comment: i enjoyed this book a lot. the texts (more like poems)gracefully compliment the images. wim wenders is not only a master in telling stories but also a great photographer . the prelude about the act of taking pictures is very insightful too.
this is a wonderful and profoundly moving little book which will get you interested in starting your own road trip and photo journal!

Summary: A Filmmaker's Travelogue
Comment: This volume will be a delight to cineastes as it features run-ins with mythmakers like Kurosawa, Scorsese, and Coppola. The pictures inside capture scenes of casual beauty. It seems Wenders has been all over the world and never forgets his camera. Wenders' spare prose requires no concentration and is as easy to read as his photos are easy to look at. Fans of Cartier-Bresson and other photophiles who savor "the moment" a photograph is taken will find many examples of just that: an unusual or special moment embalmed by Wenders' lens and preserved forever in this book. Charming.
