Places in Time: A Photographic Journey

<p>This book is a compilation of four decades of pictures taken in places familiar and remote. It is entirely of the film era and ends with the 20th century. In Jeffrey Heller’s 20s and 30s, he had two professions—he was working as an architect as well as a professional photographer, burning the candle at both ends. He had briefly studied with Ansel Adams and for a year with Minor White. In his mid-30s, he realised that he could not continue both professions and decided to make architecture his primary calling and photography his artistic outlet. This freed Heller to photograph as he wished, and he took his cameras with him wherever he went, whether the travel was vacation or business he would make time to photograph. Heller always used professional equipment and took his photography as seriously as his architecture. Heller worked with his wife, a photographer and artist herself, and went through probably 2000 images to select the ones for this book. The book is from a wide range of places, but the emphasis is on the image and not the place. The photographs are an impression in time and character and visual content. </p>
