Firstly I need to apologize for not posting of late, and I’m not going to moan but its because I have had real bad back problems…… But as the saying goes ” It could always be worse!” and damn right it could be!..

Which brings me onto a new book by Canadian Photographer Jack Burman’s new book ” The Dead” and yep as you can see my back problems pale in significance to some of the subjects of this fine book…

“The Dead” published by the amazing Canadian Magenta Foundation, is basically a study of long deceased but painstakingly preserved bodies, or bits of bodies…..
Its well worth a look and the special edition comes in a beautiful wooden box ( coffin!)…

Its available from Magenta here….
and there is a good article here….
