MVG Very well put together coffee table book with compelling images from the Lunar landing and Apollo missions of the late 1960's and early 1970's.

Other editions in the range are limited to three Artist’s Proofs (A/P) and one Exhibition Print (E/P) directly from the wall of any extended public exhibition. Where this book is better than Apollo VII-XVII, beyond the impressive 400-ish full glossy pictures to look at, is the captions that go with the images. I am guessing that all the technical info about camera settings, exposures and stops etc would be greatly appreciated by photography enthusiasts. Andy Saunders' remastered images are so clear and real that they are the next best thing to being there .The precision, the detail, and the validity of his work on the old film from early human spaceflight is breathtaking to me - such incredibly valuable results and contributions to these historic events. Apollo Remastered by Andy Saunders provided me with a masterful pictorial review of my great days serving as a crewman on four lunar missions. The expertise of pre-press specialists, countless stages of digital proofing, and assessing / amending the prints as they came off the presses at some of the world’s finest printers have helped achieve this goal.

If you're not of that era the journey described within this book, is well a documented history of the Apollo missions for all to enjoy. All of our books are 100% brand new, unread and purchased directly from the publishers in bulk allowing us to pass the huge savings on to you! This is a beautiful and beautifully-made book that casts the moon as the ethereal and special place it is rather than just 'desolate'.The Sunday Times Bestseller, Apollo Remastered is a large format book featuring over 400 of the highest quality Apollo photographs ever published.

Startling spacewalks, portraits of astronauts in their spacecraft and dazzling new views of the Earth and the Moon give new insight and perspective of man’s exploration of space. It is recommended that the print is mounted, ideally to a smooth surface such as coated foam board (not cardboard - to avoid any ‘orange peel’ effect) before framing, and displayed out of direct sunlight. The Apollo Remastered prints, now available to purchase, are the very same quality prints exhibited at some of the world’s finest museums and galleries. Und es ist tatsächlich eine wunderbare Ergänzung: scharfe Fotos in brillanten Farben im Großformat sind es Seite für Seite wert, die Augen wandern und staunen zu lassen - über die Schönheit des Planeten und seinem Mond und vor allem über den Mut der Astronauten! pure magic, full of clarity, sharpness and color that makes readers feel like part of the team--a far cry from those grainy images that were broadcast on TV at the time.With all visual content from the Apollo program now sat in archives gathering dust, the world badly needs individuals like Andy who are prepared to go the extra mile to extract the richness from this astonishing material, bringing new life to the old. Both those things are a bit of a rebuke to the current 'let's colonize Mars' corporate space race environment.

If I had one small criticism it's that the captions under the photos are in varying shades of grey on black paper, making it quite hard to read: I had to keep tilting the book to get the light in the right place. It’s not surprising that his new book, Apollo Remastered has become a Sunday Times best-seller; showcasing photographs that are literally out of this world. Il risultato toglie il fiato: e se alcune immagini sono solo versioni migliori di scatti già celeberrimi (vedi qui sotto AS11-40-5903), altre sono quasi dei miracoli di elaborazione fotografica, che rivelano per la prima volta dopo cinquant'anni dettagli e sfumature (uno degli esempi migliori è la copertina del libro, AS09-24-3665, un ritratto del comandante di Apollo 9 Jim McDivitt).Apollo Remastered is truly a visual re-documentation of the first time humanity stepped on another world, and the first time we saw our own planet from the vantage point of space - whether you’re a space aficionado or not, this is a big deal. Największe wrażenie robi położona obok starszego albumu ze zdjęciami Apollo, który nagle wygląda blado i niewyraźnie. In Houston, Texas, there is a frozen vault that preserves the original NASA photographic film of the Apollo missions. He has now put out the book and it is incredible - if you want a coffee table picture book of Apollo, this is the one to get. Each Apollo mission gets its own chapter, with an introductory page about the astronauts, the mission and the photography (it isn't just 'here are some photos', it's a book about photography in space), then you get the shots.
