Things I Forgot

The heat was getting to me more than I realized, causing me to forget the meta photo. I snapped a photo of the sign instead. What was I thinking? [Dog] [Blaze] [Forest] [Joy]

Also, “One border color as a thread throughout the project. Picked #808080 gray for the grayscale of photography.” [Photo Safari The First, Beeswax Creek Park]

Decided to restart this. Usually, I take the border color from the photo. Note the different colors on the meta photos. Keeping a consistent color will give the project unity.

After drafting this post with grey borders, slight change in plans. I think I’ll use the grey border for the SLR photos only. Meta photos are camera phone pix and will get the standard treatment. This will keep the big camera photos distinct as a group.

Update. Going to go with Nikon yellow (#FFE100) for the meta pix borders. Appropriate, goes with the gray, and satisfies my need to sort things onto categories.
