About the Book
John Gitsham’s The Image Collector is a masterful exploration of simplicity, impermanence, the wonder of the natural world, the chaos of city living, and the beauty found in recognizing the transient nature of earthly things. Through his deliberate framing, use of abstraction, and keen compositional skills, Gitsham invites viewers to embark on a visual journey that celebrates the ephemeral, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the imperfections that define our shared existence.
This is John’s third book, following on from The Dream Theatre in 2020 and ambient in 2022. This book – The Image Collector - includes all new photographs. Some are shot on film and others are digital images.
