Thanks Billie and Rhl! 😀
I'm thinking about possibly making a small book of this series in the future. What do you guys think?
Clarify a bit more what the series would include.
I think if it were solely architectural/texture/color fields, I'd be less enthusiastic than if it included more 'humanity' (like this one, and a few of the earlier shots a few posts back), or evidence of human presence--signs, graffiti, trash, shadows.... That's my bias or perhaps taste. More important is that you have conviction in your vision, and the selections are strong according to your lights, and there is some unifying element (formal, conceptual, associative, subject-drive) as well as some dynamic surprise.
In a general way, though, I think it's great that you're thinking of a book and soliciting feedback, and I would be happy--and imagine others of our little GRD-tribe here would, too--to offer thumbs up/down on a selection as a way of playing focus-group and providing critical support. RFF might not be the best place to audition book-selects, but there's Dropbox, private Flickr sets, etc.
For my part, I have a collection of GRD III work titled
Shelf Lives, entirely focused on intimate, available-light portraits of animal/human figurines, dolls and puppets on the shelves of Goodwill, St Vinnie's, and similar second hand stores. I have exhibited 150 images from it as an iMac/LR slide show that in turn was part of a mixed media show (prints/computer-slideshows), and am considering creating a Blurb selection as well. So I might very well avail myself of the advice of this tribe, too, if anyone else thinks this is a good use of their critical skills....
Cheers, R
