window seat, plz

I’m a window seat guy. Mine is not a fixation, it’s a necessity, when I sit at the window I breathe the chilled air outside, I drink the bright light, and I fill my mind with emotions. What’s out there is a box full of surprises to me. I spot nerdy stuff like geography maps and city layouts, but I also see artsy paintings of colors, nuances and shapes. And I photograph. Window seat photography is part of the whole experience, and for me a pleasurable one.
window seat, plz - is a photobook, presented both in print and digital. Each format has over 70 images taken in a 20 years.
