Portfolio
[posted at 12:35 GMT]    

The process of portfolio making is rather lengthy, but still interesting. This long time it takes is mostly because I do not have all the time I wish for my photography.
Yesterday I have again met with my friends Caroline and Hape. Caroline is helping me a lot and not only that she is giving a lot of her optimism and energy. We spoke yesterday some two and half hours, why looking at my photographs. We removed three photos and add one new. I also presented here little poem like text which could go with each of the photograph. These text supposed to underline effect to the viewer and not replace photo itself. I hope it will work that way.

I have plan to make some new photos to this childhood series. And on other hand I am quite full of ideas about new set of photos for the book I have mentioned before. The Book, written by my friend.
Yesterday Caroline had idea to invest four to five days totally to the photography for a single subject and than spend rest of the time to bring it to the form which could be presented. What she ment is actually take a short week for nonstop photographing only. Time enough to get into total mood and get into the subject. Than after that, spend couple of month (or weeks) to work on exposed material. I think that is brilliant idea and maybe I will do it this way for the book. I do not see other way to actually make thing happening more.
