More InformationThe first seven pages of the notebook detail Moore's experiments in photographing his own sculptures and various pebbles lying around his studio. For most photographs he recorded aperture size, length of exposure, light conditions and distance of the subject from the camera. Occasionally he also noted the results of developing the film.
