 Maybe I’ll send one in and he’ll get a surprise magazine at the end of the summer!   

 

Visual Poetry: A Creative Guide for Making Engaging Digital Photographs.

If you are interested in photography, at all, this book will absolutely ROCK your creative world.

Chris Orwig will invigorate and challenge your creative spirit to the core!

I found my copy while browsing Barnes N Noble a couple months ago and have been meaning to share it with you ever since!

{TEASERS}

“The point of creative photography is that we all get to choose our own way.” [page 57]

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

“And finding photographs depends on realizing how distinct we actually are.  If you an tap into what makes you different, what sets you apart, you can begin to find photographs that will be completely your own.”  [page 212] 

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

“People will tell you it is all about capturing the essence.  I say capture the essence of what captivates you most.” [page 186]

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

“…pursue your vision again and again. In a sense, you will need to let yourself go and become a beginner with each frame you take.”  [page 53]

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

“Don’t examine what type of photography sells.  Rather, ask yourself what makes you come alive.”  [page 259]

 

  

Working on Christmas gifts & stocking stuffers…

5 x 7 Photographs + Spiral Bind = Little Counting Book

You could substitute miniature toys, blocks, treats for the crayons… Mason’s book focuses on numbers 10-20 and Blaise’s book is all about COLORS!

And some leftovers from our crayon week…

I still have bits of crayon under my finger nails!

One Christmas gift DONE! Only 20 or 30 more to go!?
