The Bookshelf #10 - Fred Herzog Modern Colour
In this Bookshelf Series review, I explore Modern Color by Fred Herzog, a landmark photography book celebrating one of the great pioneers of colour street photography. Shot largely on Kodachrome, Herzog’s images capture the signs, streets, shop fronts and everyday life of mid-century Vancouver with remarkable warmth and visual energy. This review looks at why the book remains essential for photographers interested in colour, composition, urban documentary work and the history of street photography.
