Photobook by David Comora

In the Footsteps of Alfred is a collection of black and white photographs taken in New York City locations where Alfred Stieglitz may have placed his feet, in a spirit he championed.

His contributions to the art of photography remain critical to showing us what is possible. What started for me as the search for a truncated cityscape slowly became a study of approach and vision. This is not an homage to one of the craft’s great early masters, but rather a meditation on dedication, process, and practice.

Alfred Stieglitz was once asked “How does a photographer learn?" He answered without even a second’s hesitation: “By looking.” So I did.
