Nature verses plan

I guess this is going to be the spot that we will be working on.

Basically, we will take two trees that are facing each other and tied together with red thread.

Ranbom Roll + Book Project Idea

11 BOOK

2++ Contact Sheets & 12 Prints in a Book with a Cover (cover can be same image as one in book).

Photograph a basic topic (i.e. flowers) and compile a series of 12 photos in a book. Each image should have a strong composition and be able to stand on its own, but share a common thread. The book should be no more than 5 x 7 in size and must have a cover that reflects the contents of the book with a title and your name. Each image should be framed in a unique way that showcases your series effectively. You must take at least two "rolls" (min. 20 images each) or engage in 2+ shoots to construct your series and submit at least 2 contact sheets of your idea development.

Here are some links to inspire your concentration/book projects... to name a few...
