A Velvet Silence - ISBN 1-905522-11-8

Pinhole Photographs and diaries from Egypt and Israel. Contains over 150 images.

“From camels to donkeys to pyramids and palms, the shots have the same brutal, raw energy as the accompanying text - this, I believe, is one of the joys of pinhole photography. The energy that comes from reducing a scene or experience to its raw bones is captivating, and David Wise has it down to an art." Black & White Photography Magazine

“I found this book truly gives another dimension to those of us who love and have journeyed into Egypt, whether as Egyptologist, holidaymaker or armchair traveller.” Ancient Egypt Magazine

England! England - ISBN 1-905522-16-9

“Back in June last year, author David Wise was attacked. Days later he found himself walking a fine tightrope between life and death. His recovery was long and painful, both mentally and physically. Once home, he picked up his pinhole camera as a simple diversionary tactic. These beautiful pictures of the South of England are the result. An excellent and thought provoking book, laced with sadness and longing.” Black & White Photography Magazine
