Next door, a distant land - photography book
Hey guys
My new book, 'Next door, a distant land' is now available for sale. I have completed the project some time ago and just collected the book from the printers. It's a strictly limited small batch edition of 75 signed copies.
It's a book about a journey, daily randomness and other typical, but very unusual happenings.
Have a look at the preview
Hope you'll enjoy it! :)
Cheers
Wojtek |

Nice images. Does the book include writings of your own (or someone else's)? I assume the book is paperback?

Hey there. The book has no writings in it, apart from the 'introduction', the same sentence as you can read on the website (R. L. Stevenson's).
The book is paperback, yes. |

got my copy yesterday - the pics convey a sort of "ordinary mystery" (other-worldliness in everyday life) quite well - hats off to you!

I got my copy a few days ago and have looked through it four or five times. I think it's great. The presentation is very simple, the photos are terrific, and I love the form factor...I think you made some interesting and risky choices here, sometimes embracing a kind of rigorous blandness, like in the one of the guy's elbow on the cafe table, or the one of the sheep on the hillside. So many of these are just about the geometry and tonality...I am really very impressed. Nice work, Wojtek.
