I was thinking something like “Little Pieces of Us” which goes with the pieces theme of your first idea

Two titles popped into my mind yesterday: “Bits and Pieces” and “Beloved Glimpses.” Don’t know if either resonates with you but will keep sharing whatever comes. I so love that project!

Patricia

I think your country needs some kind of a new F. D. Roosevelt to deal with the current economic crisis. And I’m NOT sure Mr. Obama is up to the challenge facing him.

Besides, he will start off with little money to do anything. So I wouldn’t be so opmistic about the next years.

Will Mr. Obama prove me wrong?

Cheers

thanks for the suggestion and the comment.
I was thinking of something like “Little Pieces of Us” since the photos are mostly small, random moments from my family life.

I also told you this before but very much enjoy your work. I smiled when reading David asking you about a title…He has asked me back in Perpignan the same question for my work and it was a struggle for a while….but eventually, something comes up :):):):).

Now, I am not an english native and by all means, this may be a horrible suggestion of a title but the one I have been thinking about when seeing your work was “AWAKENING”… Reason it makes sense to me is that I can see in your photographs the awakening of love between you, your wife, your little son who is literally also awakening to the world around him…Final point, there may also be awakening for yourself and your photography… David talks about you having really discovered yourself as a photographer with this project….so anyway, just a thought!!!! Feel free to crap all over it if you or others do not like it :):):).

Cheers,

Eric

hi … I just wanted to say that I really miss all of you. Been on the road most of the time and … I like to keep offline. Just as I like to “forget” to take my mobile whenever I leave.

I am very curious to sit down to have a look at what is happening here. Last time I left for less time – there was a major turnover here. So I wonder where we stand now.

But I am rushing. Still on the move. For real now, too, as I am moving out of this app and into another – both have to be renovated (old & new app). I will spare you the details. But days are long and without internet.

Looking forward to catch up here, listen to everyone’s new adventures and see all the new wonderful photos! Please take care and until sooooon!

DAVID
have you gotten some of my postcards yet? I think 4 so far. Hope I got your right address.
The project is getting a separate website

keep thinking…Patricia is right…”Rooted” is not it…”Roots” was the great title using the same Latin root (no pun intended)…

HSH is just too too too, well you know..

so, i would imagine your best title is soon to come….it will just hit you….

cheers, david

Home Sweet Home is sort of the first idea I had, a gut feeling and it also sort of shaped the way I shot the project. I do like it but Im open to changing it. Rooted is simply one idea I have come up with so far.

Your latest edit is superb! I especially like your inclusion of outside shots as well as the more intimate inside ones. Your new additions are wonderful. Sorry that I can’t offer you a critique. The fact is I just love this project. Can’t wait to have it in my hands as a book.

Regarding the title, I’m not sure that “Rooted” makes it for me. To be honest, I prefer “Home Sweet Home.” But it’s your book, so that will be your decision.

Bravo to you, your wife and son!

Patricia

Its winter now and I want to shoot through winter and then maybe in spring do a Blurb book and do as you suggested. Like Patricia, I would like to shoot through all 4 seasons plus the winter will have the look and feel I want to give this, which is a more harsh look especially with some outdoors photographs. Ofcourse whenever you want to publish it in your magazine Id be ready for a photo essay. I have a bit of a layout in mind, more some juxtapositions but I think it will need time to really think it out.

Ive been kicking around a few ideas for new titles recently, Im still not decided at all but I have some feeling. Id be happy to field some suggstions though from others. I want to find a title which has a meaning, perhaps a double meaning. Im partial to “Rooted” since through this project I have been able to find roots for my photography, as well as the mosr obvious meaning of putting down family roots of my own after being on my own in a strange land.

I’ve now added my favorite new images to the latest edit of my “Falling Into Place” self portrait series. Although nothing is set in stone I now have 48 images in total (out of the 1000+ that I’ve taken!).

Today is the five month anniversary of my taking my first photo for this project. In some ways it feels like I’ve been working on it my entire life–which, in a manner of speaking, I have–and in other ways it feels like I just began.

But I know one thing for sure–I would never have been where I am today had it not been for David’s ongoing commitment to the project and the suggestions, support and critiques of each one of you. Thanks to ALL!

Your feedback is ALWAYS welcome…

am a bit swamped for time right now editing editing editing, but i just wanted to say thank you to all those that looked at my images from david’s workshop in oaxaca and commented… i am grateful that you have taken the time to do so… it has been a tough 9 days, but it was worth it, and i learned so so much…

hope to be producing more and more and better and better images soon… and sharing them here as well…

thank you for saying so.. :)

I’ve been offline for a few weeks trying to get some things in order. The Digital Railroad closing didn’t help, but at last I finally found some time between some assignments to get back out there on the street.

If you’d like to see some recent work, I’d love your feedback on some pure street photography. I just started it, but I think I’ll keep it as another long term project.
