The photographic monograph Janez Korošin – ljudje in krajine (črno-bele fotografije 1960-2015) (eng. Janez Korošin – People and Landscapes (black and white photographs 1960–2015)) by Primož Lampič provides an overview of the work of photographer Janez Korošin.

Janez Korošin (1935, Ljubljana) started taking photographs at the age of 17 in the photoclub Fotoklub Ravne na Koroškem under the mentorship of František Kamnik. He worked as a chemical technician at the Ravne Ironworks, and after completing his military service he joined the Jožef Stefan Institute in Ljubljana, where he met the renowned photographer Marjan Smerke, who introduced him to exhibition photography.

He began to work more seriously as a photographer in the mid-1960s. In 1966, he became a member of the Fotoklub Ljubljana and Fotogrupa Šolt, which merged in 1968 to form Fotogrupa Ljubljana Šolt, where some of the most prominent local photographers of the time worked. Later he also became a member of the Slovenian Photographers' Association. He has also received numerous international awards and prizes for his photographic work. In 1977, the Photographic Association of Yugoslavia awarded him the title of Master of Photography, and in 1996, the Photographic Association of Slovenia honoured him with the Janez Puhar Lifetime Achievement in Photography Award. In 2000, he was awarded the title "FIAP Excellency" by the International Photographic Association FIAP.
