Hello

I’m Andrew Eberlin.

Photos, Photographers and Photobooks is a mix of my own photos, and musings on photographers and their photobooks.

I have been a keen photographer since I was a teenager. It encourages me to look for something different in the day-to-day, it trains my eye to observe details, to see how the light moves and to search for different angles.

To notice more.

I like taking photos of modern buildings. Especially brutalist buildings. Why? I like their simplicity. Their beauty. I like the optimism with which they were built. It was a time when there was a consensus that society could be made better for the many.

Elsewhere on the internet

So I can pay the bills, go out and go on holiday I design websites for independent businesses, creative people and community groups.

I sometimes share photos on Instagram but I get frustrated by their Reels, their algorithms, their use of our data and the way they crop portrait photos.
