The movements of its sands, the patterns of light, the behavior of its camels, falcons and oryxes, the changes in its sparse vegetation throughout the seasons--all this and more he has patiently observed and captured with his camera.\u003cbr\u003eAl Thani photographs exclusively in analog, and for many years a Leica with 35mm black-and-white film has been his favorite tool. Now, he has turned to Polaroids, and this book presents the results for the first time. Al Thani's interest is not only the subtle, painterly compositions and luminous color variations of the medium, but also its fascinating irregularities: the unpredictable streaks, blotches and distortions that make every print unique.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Khalid Al Thani\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3969991889\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783969991886\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steidl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/24\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Khalid Al Thani","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46451139936511,"sku":"9783969991886","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_40e5e920-1fac-495d-9b0f-ba8480019360.jpg?v=1735876573","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/khalid-al-thani-khalid-al-thani-9783969991886","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
