Book of the Week  Hot Light/Half-Made Worlds by Alex Webb Each image included in photographer Alex Webb's first book (now an out-of-print classic), published in 1986, displays his mastery of color, composition, and light. The tropics are portrayed as a hybrid land mixed with new and old, where natural beauty and human desperation coexist. | Join the Fray  © Marilyn Silverstone / Magnum Photos What do you think of these photos? Join the Fray, our reader discussion forum. For me, photography affirms reality, but does not explain it. Part of its strength lies in its ambiguity, its suggestiveness. I embrace that strength of photography rather than worrying about its weaknesses. Alex Webb |
