Day 26: More of the letter A

Obviously, this one turned out a little blurry, but I wanted to play a little more with the idea of collecting letterforms. Sort of a typography exercise in photography. I liked this for the pseudo-tiki/bennihana lounge feel of the letters combined with the outlined and then slapped onto some faux-wood grain.

Day 24: A

Just some more fun with letterforms. I guess you could take a kind of Sesame Street bent with this one, right? Kind of a Today sponsored by the letter "A" sort of thing. Maybe it's been too long since I watched Sesame Street--I'm not even sure if they even still do that bit. ...guess I know what I'm watching when I get home tonight.

Day 22: Chain Gang

 

This medallion is an element on a charm bracelet that belonged to my mother. I remember being fascinated with this when I was little. In looking at the type on the back of this medallion, I was struck by the lights and darks and relief of the type. 

Day 21: Letterforms

Again, looking at font as a graphic, photographic element. I think to really achieve the depth of field and perspective I'm going for here, I need to invest in a macro lens or macro filters and try this again with the Nikon.

Day 20

 

Day 20: Reading

I've been playing with font & letterforms recently in my sketchbooks so this composition I snapped stood out today. I think perhaps it's time to move on from "small items" for a while.
