Creating a photo book

With inspiration taken from Silvia Plachy and martin parr. I have been looking at the layout of the images and they way the images are displayed on the page, the size, the placement and the relevance to the last image you look at and setting up your eye for the next image. I Really like the way 'Signs and Relics' is laid out with the use of different size images with the frame kept on the edge to show the film edge, creating a unique frame and aesthetic really isolating the images from the page. This would be good to consider with the placement of the images but would only really work with images that show detail from a distance or objects that are obviously it. The first page, written by hand in a black marker pen shows more of an engagement with the process of production of this book. Bearing in mind the subject, Signs and Relics then this makes perfect sense to write in pen as our language is a big part of this spectrum of informations we communicate with as physical entities. This is a good book to reference when looking at my layout.
