BPPA Five Thousand Days Exhibition

[Edmond_Terakopian]

Greetings All,
Yesterday (11 Oct) saw the opening of the BPPA Five Thousand Days exhibition, which is basically the last 5000 days of British Press Photography ( http://www.fivethousanddays.com/ ).
It will be running 'till the 4-th of December (10am - 11pm) at the National Theatre (Lyttelton Foyer), South Bank, London SE1.
It was a great evening and from what I heard, everyone was in awe of the work that was exhibited. If you're in town and haven't yet seen the exhibition, I can't recommend it strongly enough! There is also a fantastic book that is available - do check it out!

Cheers,

Edmond

Hi ShiYin,
The book is amazing - I love books, and without a doubt this ranks in my top 10 photographic books of all time.
Well, you've got 'till the 4-th of December to escape from Uni for a day! Its well worth it!

Hi All,
The publishers of the book had a week's delay in getting us the bulk of the books, and I finally have my own copy. After looking through it again and spending the time it deserves, I feel I just must write again and recommend it!
Its available through Amazon. Here are the links for hte UK and USA:
