Photography Beyond Technique: Essays from F295 on the Informed Use of Alternative and Historical Photographic Processes from Focal Press is a book edited by Tom Persinger, a photographer and writer who is also the founder of F295. It is a compelling selection of essays and images that reveal the thoughts and methods of some of today's most exciting contemporary photographers. These artists employ alternative, historical, or handmade processes and techniques, and they share a comprehensive view of the medium, believing that the choice of photographic process is just as important as the selection of subjects. While other books concentrate solely on process, or theory, or artistic intent, this one focuses on photography in which these decisions are considered inseparable.
