Book

Posted by Jen (Alpharetta, United States) on 27 August 2008 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

Just playing around with some "stock" type images seeing what results I got with a white foamboard and some natural light.

I have uploaded some of my favorite images to redbubble for sale http://www.redbubble.com/people/jenseye
Please go check it out and if there is something you like in my portfolio here on Am3 that isn't posted on redbubble please let me know and I can upload for purchase. Thank you!

I've got some of that foamboard too, and have yet to play with it. This is a great shot, Jen. I don't know how you kept that upper book open as you did, but however you did it, worked!

@Judy: Thanks Judy...the hardest part was just keeping the cats from sniffing around and getting in the shot ; )

This is a very good shot Jen. I am constantly amazed at how good books can look when photographed in creative ways. These open ones invite the eye into the scene, and the red ribbon bookmark is perfect!

I like that abstract 2D effect due to the DOF, especially with the upper book. Well done!

Great shot. The red of the ribbon gives it that splash that it needs and the depth is phenomenal.
