About the book >.>.> Sam Haskins started his professional life as a graphic designer. He soon discovered that the medium of photography pro- vided a more challenging demanding and exhilarating way of realising his visual ideas than the conventional paper pencil and paint. Photo designers have an essentially purist attitude in the manipulation of images. Sam Haskins is a super purist who will not tolerate any laboratory created effects. All these pictures were therefore made in the camera using unadulterated photo- graphic techniques. Une nouvelle profession s’impose de plus en plus: celle de la photo-design n?e de l’alliance de la discipline du photographe ? celle du graphiste-designer. Sam Haskins commen?a sa vie profession- nelle en tant que graphiste-designer. II d?couvrit rapidement que l’utilisation de la photographie allait lui offrir la possibilit? de r?aliser ses conceptions visuelles d’une fa?on beaucoup plus stimulante et exaltante que ne le pouvaient les traditionnels papier crayon et peinture. L’attitude des “photo-designers dans la manipulation des images est essentiellement celle de puristes. Sam Haskins est un puriste au plus haut degr?; jamais il ne tol?rerait la cr?ation d’effets en laboratoire. Ainsi chaque illustration pr?sent?e dans cet ouvrage est le fruit d’un travail exclusivement photographique. (MP)
