American Photographer Ralph Gibson (b.1939) manipulates his camera to focus on particular compositional aspects, such as highlighting, depth, and shadows. This photograph, one of Gibson's more well-known works, depicts a hand hovering over a doorknob. This gelatin silver print is from the Somnambulist series, first published in Gibson's book (of the same name) in 1970.
