Playa Artwork
Aug. 24th, 2008 02:46 pmThese were my instructions:
> other (non-BM) events. It's all in color, but I can make it B/W. And I
> know someone who can print onto canvas.
So this is what I came up with:

2206 
7516 
6742 
7098 
7687 
5876 
4431 
9469
I compose everything for the typical 3x4 aspect ratio, so when cropping down to a square I'd have to make some hard decisions, and some photos just did not work right after cropping. (There was no way to recompose them well.) There are also several different ways to crop a photo, and each of them is a unique photo by itself. The small changes in size and position of subject matter within the frame will change the mood dramatically.
There were a lot of other photos I was considering, and working on. But I'm out of time. Here are some examples. [For the record, not all of them.]

Hey Julia;> I'll have to see what I have. I know I have some stuff like that from
I just wanted to let you know that we have space for black-and-white photographic of art of people in movement or engaged in spiritual activity at some point or dancing.. etc.
If you would like to show your work on the playa, we just need it printed in canvas with grommet at the corners. You do great art so it would be awesome to include it in the temple this year.
