Our latest multimedia piece focuses on Bruce Haley's latest book, Winter. Winter gives a glimpse into the earliest traces of winter, the height of the snow season, and the melt-time within the western Great Basin region. Devoid of people and interiors, Winter provides seemingly calm and quiet photographs of the reality of winter on a modern day frontier.

Indian photographer Sameer Tawde plays with the real and the imaginary in his project 'Dialogues of an Introvert' by making and photographing miniature sets, sculptures, and life size installations.
The Smi, which translates to The People are an indigenous group living in the Arctic Circle region of northern Scandinavia. It is the largest area in the world with an ancestral way of life based on the seasonal migrations of the animals. The Sámi are by tradition reindeer herders and live a nomadic lifestyle based on the reindeer migration. By possessing a livelihood that is dependent on their surroundings, the Sami are acutely aware of the changes in nature. Erika Larsen has spent over three years documenting their symbiotic relationship with the environment.

Shot on locations around the world, Captured by the Sea documents beach culture. Cantlin works as an invisible observer, quietly studying colors and textures, and patiently waiting for facial expressions and body language to evolve. It is the juxtaposition of these details, layered in the foreground, mid-ground, and background of her photographs that makes them transportive; encouraging curiosity provoking a creative narrative within the viewer. Captured by the Sea translates this culture and community by recording fleeting glimpses into how people experience the sea.
@ericareadeimages Beach Lovers is a series of intimate moments shared by couples at the beaches of NYC. These moments hold intimate gestures of couples; some tender, rubbing sunscreen on a partner's back; others lustful, a deep kiss in the water. Being amongst the waves and sand emboldens couples to enjoy more affectionate freedom, their inhibitions less hidden than anywhere else observed in the city.

Between 2004 and 2007, American photographers @martinhyers and @will_mebane made a series of road trips through the American South, West and East to create a photographic archive of objects. The project, titled Empire, yielded more than 9,000 photographs captured in 25 states. Using two hand-held 4x5 view cameras, Hyers and Mebane ventured out into public places, met strangers and accompanied them back to their homes, offices and factories to photograph. Working in a deliberately forensic fashion, they photographed the objects they encountered -- stoves, family photographs, computers, trophies and the like.
