Coffee table photography book recommendations

[boYce]

Its a friends birthday who is really into photography and rather than getting him a 'how to' book I want to get him a really nice book full of amazing photos, a decent size, printed on quality paper.

He's mentioned a couple of names of photographers that he follows online but I cant remember their names now.

Hes into a range of photography, travel, portrait, street, landscape.

budget, £60.

cheers,

"Magnum is a photographers collective started by Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson and others.

This large coffee table book shows off their best shots and their best is pretty damn good.

So good you should first get your photo on the cover of National Geographic more than once before even applying to join.

Have a look at this book and you will see why they can be so selective."
