The photography of Walter Houde

From the  world of law enforcement to the world of sports and glamour, from the whimsical  to the tragic, Available Light forms a thirty-year essay of photographer Walter  Houde. Within these pages lie the full range of human emotion, the gamut of  physical endeavor. Caught on film are royalty and cheerleader, victim and  president, teen idol and track star. Each photograph is rendered in fine detail  as a duotone, reproducing each black and white print as faithfully as possible  to the photographer’s original.

With a foreword by children’s author Judy Cox, and its meticulously printed duotones, this book is a must-have for anyone who  truly appreciates the lost art of fine black and white printing. Included are  never-before published photos of the Beatles, late track star Steve Prefontaine and  late US President Lyndon Johnson.
