    Hi! While i knew about the existence of D&C for a long time, I just recently discovered how beautiful and creative it really is. I'm from India. Are you guys planning on bringing the magazine to India by any chance? If not, what is the cost of the magazine and where can i subscribe to it? Best regards, zenobia

    Hello, My friend Michael Embacher published this book on his own in 2007 November. I think this book worths a review in your magazine. Please let me know if you are interested. Best regards, Ying-Shan

    Hello all!!! lucborell introduces a new concept and is defined as a "fotofone" artist. He realizes his photographs only with the digital camera of his mobile phone. It is to simplify its shots and avoid the techniques he uses the digital camera, which he uses as a roadmap. His pictures are all over again on the computer. Cultural engineer, his passion remains art as a global medium.
