Spark your photography passion with this gem!”
– 5/5 Star Review by Foluso Falaye for Readers’ Favourite
“[Moments in Focus] is a fascinating collection of pictures, interspersed with interviews with some of the photographers. The photographs are many and varied: a torn bag snagged on a fence; a glimpse of sky between crowded flats, wide and wonderful Canadian landscapes; an abandoned kitchen; a pathway through a forest; a jumble of tents with skyscrapers behind; a deserted building falling back into the land; lots of patterns from nature and from everyday life, always there, but not always noticed; and, of course, people in all their rich diversity. There is so much here to delight in, a tapestry that reflects all the complexity and wonders of life.”
