In Color

I seem to be writing a lot of books lately. I guess it is because I did not have the opportunity to do so until this year, 2015. This particular collection is a group of photographs rather than an actual written book. It came about because of a desire to have some of my photographic work in print outside of newspapers. Thousands of my images have been published in newspapers over the years as part of my work as an editor, reporter and photographer. But, as we used to say in newspapers, it has to be perfect today, but tomorrow it's fish wrap. Not exactly permanent. The photos in this book span a period of 10 years, from 2005 to 2015 and none of them appeared in newspapers. - Shawn M. Tomlinson, Oct. 18, 2015
