This book is a poignant collection of contact sheets and photos by international and well-known photographers. Each selected photo tells the point of view of the author, while the contact sheets offer the opportunity to better understand how the photographer chose the right shot. Each photo is accompanied by a text written by the photographer themselves. World-famous photographers describe their best photos and tell the readers when and why the picture was taken.
