Happy New Year!
Well, 2020 is behind us.
Let’s hope 2021 offers a return to some kind of normality to make, see and discuss photography with and amongst friends.
This first Newsletter of the New Year continues the series of our ongoing online articles linked to issue #005 of Offline Journal with a focus on the Photobook & Wales, and it’s a great pleasure to kick off the New Year with an exclusive conversation with Dan Wood about his new book, available for pre-order from today.
Enjoy listening to the audio at the top of this page!

Photographer Dan Wood discusses his new photobook ‘Black was the river, you see’ (now available for pre-order) and on creating some semblance of order in his extensive film archive shot over 25 years.
Ellie Hopkins and Brian Carroll talked with Dan before Christmas about the new photobook - available for pre-order from Kozu Books today. It marks a milestone as the final title in a trilogy exploring Dan's personal relationship with Bridgend and the south Wales Valleys.
We also discuss his current distraction of archiving film negatives of his photography spanning twenty five years.
You can see a selection of images from the project on Dan’s website - www.danwoodphoto.com/blackwastheriver
Also follow his latest adventures with Photobookjunkies - an online store offering new and second hand Photobooks curated by Dan.
