"This book emphasizes the situational element in various kinds of portrait photography. One point that is particularly stressed is the presence of the photographer's gaze, as an integral part of what the picture is about: the activity of one person looking, manifested in a moment that can feel as transitory as the blink of an eye or as durational as a small eternity."@en
