Basis of Magazine

As I said in the last post, we are going with somewhat of a simple TIME magazine look. We still are but we're thinking of using a more personalized approach. We want to use pictures we've taken with a simple colored background such as a solid color. I want to use a picture from my India trip. The pictures really capture what I saw and how I interpreted the atmosphere. Which will then take me into my two-page spread.

My two-page spread is going to be a "behind the photographer" piece. Which means that it will be somewhat of an interview of me. Because I took all the pictures the story will revolve around what I saw and captured. When I took pictures I focused on everyday people and their natural beauty. I took mainly mid-shot/close ups of people faces, with a blurred background to emphasize them as a person.

This is one of the pictures that I think I might use. I love this picture because it captivates the viewer with its innocence of the young girls face. I like the blurred Hindi writing showing the setting and where she is in her everyday life. Im glad that I think I have this figured out, but I have so much more to go with this magazine.
