Daylight is pleased to announce the audiobook version of Photographs Not Taken is now available for download. For more information and purchase, please visit www.audible.com and search "Photographs Not Taken."

Photographs Not Taken is a collection of essays by photographers about moments that never became a picture. Conceived and edited by Will Steacy, each photographer was asked to abandon the camera and, instead, use words to recreate the image that never made it through their lens.

Fotofever explores the diversity of photography and video art of today while supporting the young gneration and staying committed to sparking a vocation of collecting in the public. 60 galleries and editors will gather alongside two unseen private collections, an exhibition of the recently graduated winner of the fotoprize, discussion platforms, fototalks, and a VIP lounge for this exceptional event in the heart of Europe.

For four months in 2011, Aaron Vincent Elkaim lived among the residents of Fort McKay, in northeastern Alberta, Canada. Fort McKay sits on top of the Athabasca oil sands, and is also the home of citizens from the Cree and Dene First Nations. The reserve relies nearly exclusively on the extraction of oil. Through his photographic interactions with the population of Fort McKay, Elkaim explores the ways in which members of these indigenous communities negotiate the tensions between modernity, development and age old traditions.

Twenty years after the Nicaraguan civil way ended, Kevin Kunishi traveled throughout the highlands of Northern Nicarague. Kunishi revisits the location in an attempt to discover and document the legacy that this protracted war left behind. A selection of the resulting portraits of survivors, both Sandinistas and Contras, as well as exquisite landscapes are gathered together here in Kunishi's first monograph.

The photographs within Los Restos are notational records of the experience of the collective memory of those involved. Although philosophies, the survivors are now bound by a landscape filled with physical and psychological scars. The markers of affiliation are slowly fading, but the horros of war remain.

The exhibition will be on view from October 11-November 11, 2012

The opening and book signing will take place on October 11 from 6-8PM
