Thanks Bob, I'll do that.  Any particular book that you recommend?

Does anyone know precisely which lenses, film, chemicals Salgado (and for
that matter, H.C.-B) uses?  I know it's the geek in me, but I'm fascinated
by the particulars of the craft.  And I'm surprised that this information is
rarely (if ever) furnished in the books.
