Hey Gerhard, the photo you show in here of the green tiles after you guys corrected it, is beautiful. The one printed on page 205, on book 1, is borderline black. That being said, I got the feeling that the other photos on this publication feel like they are at least one stop underexposed, compared to the photos you show on the video. The feeling of the positive transparencies being backlit from scanning/projecting is missing completely on these books. Quite underwhelming given the price of this thing and the fact that it is year 2023. I miss the good old Steidl, when there were less books being produced and more care and attention to detail.
I love Eggleston’s photographs but it’s more of a fascination with the man himself for me. The way he talks about his photos and what often seems a struggle for him to explain what he like or why he shoots a scene. People could easily find him obtuse and difficult but he’s just trying to think past the obvious reactions to something, at the same time, he chooses and shows a photograph with no explanation or even a title and leaves it up to the viewer to find what they like or not in it.
Q: I always thought that a good deal of the character of Eggleston’s work was in the dye-transfer printing process. But, Mr. Steidl seems to say that all of the chromes for these books were ‘scanned’ with a Phase One system? How, then, do these images still have the ‘look’ of the images we have seen from the 70s?
There is still no photographer whose work makes me itch to get out and make pictures like William Eggleston.
I wish Kodachrome and the dye transfer would come back
This is a serious gift to photography
a man that needs that many pens must be important!

*FEWER books. You should pay more attention to detail in your English grammar.
Eggleston is a great photographer. The more that one sees his work the more they are appreciative.

The genius of Eggleston and Steidl produces the best quality photo books, hands down...
Fanstastic. Love the story about the green tile.

Just ordered this. Very much looking forward to this one. Thanks.
Eggleston - a gift that keeps on giving. I'm eagerly waiting for Ernst Haas' color correction. Can you let me know when it will be republished?
Same 👍🏻
Does anyone know anything about the photo visible at 15:29? The Barbara Fritchie billboard? I'm googling, but not seeing anything yet
Where can I find the music attributes? Sounds like Mingus but I might be wrong... Feels like Mingus ❤️
awesome, i am researching William Eggleston more and more.
Did Gerhard get my package? Great video, can’t wait to see this!
Love to see the Master himself doing the interviewing.
Is The Outlands an expanded and more complete version of The Guide? Or is it something else?
The Outlands is indeed something else. It's the final installment of his color work including 400 plates of unseen images.
Is Eggleston still shooting new work? I haven’t seen anything recently made.
The Outlands is "a definitive last pass" (William Eggleston III) of William Eggleston’s early work, including 400 plates of unseen images.
Eggs is the one. So exciting to see this.
Incredible.
Is the famous Red Ceiling Photograph is in The Outlands book?
No.
@@SteidlPublishers Please could you tell me in which William Eggleston book can I find that photograph what is published by Steidl? Thank you
@@mrsultkolbasz it’s in William Eggleston’s Guide
@@robertocollo2890 that is not true. Red Ceiling Photograph is not in the Guide book
Fred Herzog did it better than Eggleston and did it earlier than Eggleston.
How did the very different Herzog do “it better”?
