Self-promotion

Hello, I thought Id share an idea I had for a postcard to send to clients/agents.... (im a photographer but do my own retouching)

Thought it was a cool idea and I wanted to get peoples attention.

It worked by the way as I know have an agent for advertising photography.

Re: Self-promotion

leoasis2006 - I dont know what you mean, you want me to look at your site?

I made the bushes by taking a shite load of photos of the tops of hedges on an overcast day, then cut out the buggers (which was made easier as the sky was whited out). Then I set about making the letters...

the 'stumps' of the bushes are made from scanning twigs, same process as the grass!

Re: Self-promotion

I like it, I think it needs more color but that is just my opinion. I would like to see a blue sky and greener grass/bushes.

Re: Self-promotion

Spydercam, your probably right that it should be more vibrant looking with blue sky.... I just find it amusing that its looks a bit misreble!
