Many Splendored Things
I am working with photos of plants, focusing on their incredible details, the parts of them that one might not expect or otherwise appreciate or that resemble something else. I am considering ways to present them, possibly in book form with a tiny, precious detail on a page followed by a larger picture containing that detail on the next page, in an effort to get the viewer to look closer at the mysterious and delightful things that might otherwise go overlooked. Perhaps I will include drawings also. However I present them, I suppose I will have to leave the borders visible, so Sam can see that I made them even. I have lots of great diverse pics, so I may do more than the required ten prints. Very excited!

I think the idea of having the close ups add a lot of interest for me. The borders are interesting in how they read as constricting to a degree of the plants and of what is going on in the picture, if you bound these all in a book that would make that empashis of trapped even more pronounced.
