Preliminary Task

Final Result: Reflection: Hurray! I did it! I am quite happy with my first task result... and it was far easier then I expected to be :)I was afraid I would end up with a more magazine looking cover, but I think I succeeded to make sure that everyone would guess from first glance that the book is a photo album with some comments about locations and on how to get there.I feel definitely more capable now to pursuing the course task!

Idea My choice for this task is to design the cover of a photo album. I wanted to make it very personal, so I narrowed down my options to the kind of photography I am drawn to: either pure nature or street photos or even pets making funny faces.I feel that all 3 topics could get easily defined target audiences.  My inspiration I tried to find examples from very different areas of interest. There was only one take out: the sky is the limit. No limitations perceived in terms of layout or content.
