"You need to watch your flame and tend to what it needs, because the light's going to go out otherwise. If you don't give it the right environment—give it burning oil, protect it from wind and so forth—then it's going to go out. Once it's out, you have to just sit around and wait till it gets lit again. You don't get lit on demand."—Manjari Sharma, on guarding your flame.

Unique is a thoughtful guide for photographers through a way of thinking about the contemporary photography landscape, and includes images from nearly 50 artists who are defining photography today. The book is now at the printer, and will be ready for shipping the first week of December, just in time for the holidays.
