Show HN: Curated collection of the greatest photography books
I've built a curated collection of the world's greatest photography books by legendary photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Ansel Adams, Annie Leibovitz, Sebastião Salgado, and Richard Avedon.
What makes this different:
- Hand-picked selections from each master photographer's essential works - Clean, minimalist design focused on the art itself - Structured data and SEO optimization for discoverability - Real ratings and authentic reviews - Mobile-responsive design Why I built this: As a photography enthusiast, I was frustrated by the lack of quality curation in this space. Most sites either focus on gear or have poor UX. I wanted to create something that celebrates the artistic legacy of these masters while being genuinely useful for people discovering photography.
Technical details:
- Static site with semantic HTML and structured data - Optimized images and lazy loading - Clean CSS with no frameworks - Fast loading times The site covers iconic works like "The Decisive Moment" by Cartier-Bresson, Adams' landscape masterpieces, and Leibovitz's celebrity portraits. Each photographer section includes their most influential publications.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the curation, design, or any photographers you think should be included. What photography books have influenced you?
