Steven Bollman: Almost True | LENSCRATCH

Photographer Steven Bollman states about his new book, Almost True, “thirty years in the making, but covering  just a few seconds in real time”. In assessing the cover of Almost True, the book could be confused for a novel, instead it’s a journey into the lives of ordinary people in ordinary places captured in a split second, playing out true scenarios on the stage of the real world. As he states, “You have to know where to look. And when to snap the shutter” and thankfully for us, he does. Almost True is a masterful collection of short stories contained in a single frame and like all good writers, he leaves just enough room for mystery and ambiguity.
