I know there are several months to go before the submission but I have to start thinking seriously about the photographs I want to submit for my ARPS submission. There are a number of question I think will have to address:
If you assume that the quality of the image is up to the level required then:
- Do I only use photographs that I were made with the same camera body? If this is the case then it has to be the 1D mk3 and if this is the case then that cuts down the selection to the past 12 months;
- Do I remix the photographs selected so that they all have a similar feel to them? Photographs made over a 12 month period will reflect the approach I had at the time. This introduces potential inconsistencies so remixing the images that have been selected should overcome this;
- Do I mix landscape and portrait orientation photographs? I can only submit 15 photographs which realistically means 3 rows of 5 so if I want to use some portrait orientated photographs then there must be either 1, 3 or 5 as the majority of the photographs I have made over the period have a landscape orientation.
I have already decided the subject matter for the submission and over the next few days will have decided which of the Hahnemule paper to use. I have watched the nature group interactive CD which,whilst having some of the worst looking software I have seen in a while, nonetheless has some very interesting information contained within. So far so good but it still means a lot of hard work over the next few months until day in question.
