As the lock down constraints become more stringent, I am turning to reviewing and working on previously captured images. This is no bad thing given the number of photographs I have taken of the reeds of Loch Cill Chriosd over the past two years.
I belong to a very small camera club that met virtually on Friday evening. I showed some of my recent images which I had taken during the winter on Skye (shared previously on this blog). There had been a couple of days respite from the interminable wet weather and I was pleased with what I was able to produce in a short space of time. During the meeting I showed this image:

It was suggested that I might consider cropping the image differently and present it as a portrait panel. I liked this idea and decided to experiment. Given the detail in the image, it took a while to re-crop in a way that worked most effectively.

Although my Exhibition is unlikely to go ahead in early May, this led me to think about producing some of these images, in this format, as a series:
Reeds 4 (Portrait Format - Alison Price, March 2020
Reeds 5 (Portrait Format) - Alison Price, October 2018
Reeds 5 (Portrait Format) - Alison Price, July 20109
I need to do some more thinking and work on the images but I think I may have an idea for future exhibition pieces. Do leave me a comment if you have any thoughts . . .
