[Leica] Ted's Photo Essay Challenge & My Attempt

[tedgrant at shaw.ca (Ted Grant)]

Hi Jay,
As your Photo Editor the first right in my face was??????????  Where is the
"" close-up? Not for me to tell you, after all "YOU ARE THE PHOTOJOURNALIST"
telling the story with your photography?"  But it requires at least some
kind of close up?  Given it appears you are in the photo essay...........
talking about etc etc. mass flowers?" 
CHEERS,
Dr. ted :-)

Subject: [Leica] Ted's Photo Essay Challenge & My Attempt

A few weeks ago Ted posted a challenge to do a short photo essay (his 
original post is shown at the bottom).
I had some time today and several images that I thought I could work 
with, so here goes:

Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red: A Photo Essay by Jay Burleson

It is an 18 mb pdf file and I suggest you download it and then view it 
in the "Two Page Display" mode, so it looks like a book.

I really would like to hear any comments and criticism you have to offer.

Thanks,

Ted sez:
"So here we go folks? 2015? Why don't some of you "Shoot a half dozen or 
more
photos telling a story, illustrating a story situation?

Be an interesting challenge for all as we're about to move into the New
Year?

Actually what you'll be doing is???  Playing a "PHOTOJOURNALIST!" Rather
than the single photo image taker? This bit of action should improve and
broaden many folks abilities to "Observe life in a wider spectrum" of
creating a photo story.

I'll volunteer time regarding editing and me being the mean assed
PHOTO-EDITOR! ;-)

OK CREW LETS SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO? :-)

cheers,
Dr. ted!"
