Hugely expensive though: about $25 an issue but worth it. Agreed, Adrian. This is the only magazine that consistently gets my approval for top notch, non-commercial images. I get it at Barnes and Noble for about $18. It is the old fashioned documentary photography (usually) that simply records life (of the subjects and the photographer, too, of course). Very well printed, well edited. By comparison all the rest look either commercial or prissy/artsy. The commercial mags make me want to make nice pictures, Photographers makes me want to go out and live life more intensely.
