When 2020 came, a Door County photographer and author produced a book that is now up for a prestigious award. Last year is when Thomas Jordan wrote Wandering and Wondering in Black and White.
The book is now a finalist for Best Photography at the 2021 International Book Awards. Jordan’s motivation was the time on his hands he gained when the pandemic hit. The book took about a year to complete. He was noticing more and more quality landscape photography in the area and wanted to try something different he felt would stand out. Jordan authored a book dedicated to black and white photography as well as the secrets behind it. Jordan talked about how black and white photography is more challenging than you’d expect.
Jordan had help from a fellow black and white photographer, Suzanne Rose, who would lend critiques.
