Selection Editting

Originally I had intended to have the book layout designed ready to submit these with that lay out included but working as a collaboration, getting shoots together, edited and laid out, hasn’t happened at the time frame we originally intended.  We had hoped to have the book ready to go to print so we could have copies for the families by Christmas but due to adding more shoots and ideas we have moved that into the new year.

For that reason I will be submitting these as the images they are, as if ready to be exhibited but not published.

I keep coming back to the final image at the bottom of this set, of the spheres blasting off into the darkness from the dust and I look to it thinking is it strong enough.  I feel the content within the image fits with the concept, the movement and motion in the focus adds to the idea of speed and movement in the spheres themselves.  The one thing that keeps drawing me back in the lack of a significant focal point within the image but again, I am feeling this adds to the image rather than subtracting giving an idea of speed and power.  If this was a journalistic, documentary or event piece, this would have gone straight in the bin but here I feel it adds rather than subtracts.
