Stock Shot Project

Old technology often makes for good stock photo concepts applicable today.  I found this old 78 record in a used record store and liked the character of the aging paper jacket.  I did a number of variations of the record using the Nikon D3x camera.

The top photo is a presentation of the entire record and will probably be used as an element in a larger design.  The bottom image incorporates a red background with sufficient space for a designer to use the photo large and add copy over it.  When shooting stock photos like this I find it important to remember that my photo is only part of another design project.
