On Sets, Themes and Portfolios
I’ve been thinking a lot about sets/themes/portfolios lately. Lots of things have been pointing me in that direction. First there was the whole SoFoBoMo experience, which was all about a set of photos, in a theme, presented in a particular format, and the result was a portfolio, of sorts. That got me all fired up to do another book, and got me thinking about getting some themes rolling.
Then there have been some thought-provoking posts lately. Paul Butzi’s been chewing on it for a while now on his blog. And L-L featured a nice article called Thinking in Themes recently.
Today I ran across Toufic Beyhum‘s great series Emotions in Motion. Just terrific stuff. I really connect with those photographs, love the presentation, and dig the theme. That set makes a great portfolio on its own.
