Today I'm taking a look a Scott Olsen's fantastic black and white photography book 'Fargo Street' https://www.instagram.com/w.scottolsen https://readframes.com/fargo-street-by-w-scott-olsen-the-first-monographic-photography-book-from-frames/ If you’re feeling stuck, isolated, or like no one really gets your photography—you're not alone. That’s why I created the TPE Tribe. It’s a supportive, non-competitive space where photographers grow together, not against each other. We give honest feedback, share inspiration, and help each other find our creative voice. If that sounds like what you’ve been missing, there’s a link below.
