lovely idea! lovely execution!
and that Artist's Statement truly is something else :-)

i'd been thinking of doing a blurb book too.
now i know mine aren't anywhere as good yet.
perhaps next year.
i need to get out more.

congrats nathan on so many beautiful humanist photos!

A couple of years ago I started making a personal yearbook in Blurb's
smallest size, 7x7 inches. I deliberately use this size because it allows
me to always carry a copy in the back pocket of my Domke 803 satchel, and
whip it out and show to people when I am asked why I am photographing
"ordinary" things or people. The 2011 edition is here:

http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/3052204

This is not a sales pitch, and most of the pictures you have seen during
the year. I have turned on the preview for the entire book, so feel free to
look. The book is also available as an e-book.

In the old days I suppose one would carry a portfolio around. Nowadays it
is a Blurb book. I certainly find it very useful.

Cheers,
Nathan
