“There are great many books of photography. There are a handful of really good books about photography. Blind Corners, a short book bound with the elegance of a Notting Hill Edition is one of those books that will strike deep. It gives language and examples to the complications and wonders and joy of what we do.” — W. Scott Olsen, Frames
“Collins concentrates on some of his favourite pictures, but the essays in Blind Corners are not simple appreciations. The book is part meditation, part polemic . . . In large part, he succeeds in reinvesting photography with some of its original magic. The photographs in the book help. These are interspersed through the text and printed on matte paper, so that the grain is sometimes visible through the image. It’s a nice effect, reminding you of the physicality of the picture . . . Blind Corners is a quiet, somewhat eccentric success.” — Aaron Labaree, Literary Review
