This image has various different contrasting elements; sky, buildings, lines, curves, and colour, with also an interesting change in textures. This will allow a varied array of images to be produced from this image.

The book will be split into 22 images, all created from this image, creating various different images with different meanings and settings. Each double page will be linked, with each image having a similar theme. This will be shown through; light posts, the bridge, architecture, construction. The start and end of the book will have images of the sky, showing an opening to the book, as a sort of establishing shot to introduce the book, but with little narrative to explain the book. This will be followed by a shot of the bridge, leading the reader into the book through the use of lines and angles. The images will then go through the image from the bridge in a clockwise motion, overall creating a journey around the main photo.

The overall image is never shown, as each image in the book will create a shot of someones view from their journey. This will then create a full image in the imagination of the reader, by piecing together each image to create a new full image of a city scape.

In the book, each image will be small, surrounded by a lot of white, giving room for the image, creating a dream like setting for each image within the book. I wanted to do this to allow the viewer to look back and forth easily, understanding the narrative of the book and creating there own image.

Overall I feel I have created a successful book, with an interesting concept. The images have contrasting themes which creates a more interesting book. If I could have created a larger image, to then create more images for a book of around 40 pages, this may have been a better book, due to a grander scale of imagery. But I feel the book has been developed well, using a suitable title which pieces  the book together well, explain how each image is a copy from another.
