I am finishing to read the last edition of ‘Correspondance New-Yorkaise’ of Depardon. It is in a book called ‘New-York’ and takes the form of a longish but interesting interview of Depardon by Alain Bergala.

For those who never heard of this, in Summer 1981, the french paper Libération sent photographer Raymond Depardon to New-York for the month of July with the mission to send one photo per day, everyday, in print. Depardon did so and annotated each photo with some thoughts he had that day, related or not to the photo. Those annotations were faithfully printed in the paper with the picture. This has now become a classic work in photography and might very well be the first ever photo blog.
