A mirror reflecting huddled figures in a garden shrouded in fog; a man and his dog splashing through a flooded field; women dancing ecstatically, like witches under the full moon, across a spotlit stage. These are just some of the images featured in Polly Samson’s new book chronicling the journey of her husband David Gilmour’s fifth studio album, Luck and Strange.
“It’s been really good to take ownership of my concert pictures as they’ve been appearing for over 20 years in various publications and all over the internet, largely uncredited,” Samson tells The Independent. “It’s a thrill to see them so beautifully printed in a book.”
