I'm thinking about putting together a photo book from this theme at
some point in the future, when I feel I have enough decent images to
constitute a reasonable collection. I'm thinking 24 would be a decent
number, but wondered what others might think. I'm mainly just putting
together a collection that friends and acquaintances might consider
purchasing -- possibly through j-album or something similar.
Any suggestions on the photos, or putting together a collection would
be greatly appreciated.
I think it would be very difficult to put together 24 pictures of high
enough quality on any subject. The RPS distinctions require 10, 15 then 20
pictures in a portfolio for you to move through the different levels of
distinction, and it really is hard to get a coherent essay of high enough
quality. Have a look at some essays in National Geographic and count the
number of photos - it's rarely that many. 24 is very ambitious - you might
be better advised to choose several different subjects and make a book of
several smaller essays.
