Our October 2025 issue goes on sale today. As always, we bring you some of the best photography on the planet and the compelling stories behind the images. Our exclusive cover story is a first-person account by contributor Mark Edward Harris of his photographic coverage of the LA fires and their aftermath. We also take a deep dive into the compelling humanist portraiture of Ric Savid; Richard Murai’s fascinating photographs on the manifestation of symbols revealed in architecture, iconography, rituals and people; Eric Nelson’s modern gothic visions revealed in 19th century tools and processes; and Jim Kazanjian’s gloriously outre constructions of an imaginary world, that, according to writer Stuart S. Frolick, “challenge our preconceptions and perceptions–about everything from time and space, to history, architecture, surreal photography, technology and the nature of the Real.” And that’s just for starters. Look for Mark Edward Harris’ cover image wherever you buy your magazines. (bandwmag.com)
