Stock Shot Project

In my blog post of February 20th I photographed a random group of letterpress characters with the word, "I" in the middle to signify standing out from the crowd.  Since then I ordered some more letters so I could continue with the theme.  "You" is another image with a similar theme of "uniqueness".

Another use for fonts is as a symbol for designers and the concept of making order out of chaos.  Both images were shot with the Nikon D3x and 60mm macro.  In Photoshop I used LAB color to bring out the subtle hues inherent in the metal font.
