Digital Image Editing Creativity Blog Post 1
I found this exercise at 11 Inspiring Exercises to Challenge You As A Photographer.
It is number 3:
3. Book as an Idea and an Object
Find a book.
What is the theme in the book?
Create an image of the book:
Create an image that embodies the essence of the book’s theme, whether it be a children’s book or a crime book. Let your imagination soar as you craft a visual masterpiece where the book takes center stage. Create an interesting photograph where the book is both the theme and the object.
My favorite author is Tom Clancy. I have read almost all of his books.
One of my favorites is a book titled Without Remorse. This book is 768 pages long.
Without Remorse by Tom Clancy delves into the heart of vengeance, justice, and the price of redemption. John Kelly is at the story's core, a former Navy SEAL haunted by personal loss and seeking solace in covert missions. Set against the tense backdrop of the Cold War, Kelly finds himself embroiled in a lethal game of intelligence, betrayal, and brutal revenge. When he rescues a young woman from a dangerous criminal enterprise, Kelly is driven to expose the sinister network behind her suffering. But what begins as a personal vendetta quickly escalates into a high-stakes mission as he discovers connections to a larger operation with national implications.
As he navigates the intricate layers of espionage, Kelly confronts both his own inner demons and powerful adversaries who will stop at nothing to protect their secrets. The line between right and wrong blurs as he embarks on a relentless pursuit of justice, pushing him to the brink of his moral boundaries. With each twist, Clancy masterfully weaves tension and suspense, leaving readers questioning what justice truly means and at what cost it comes. Will Kelly succeed in his quest, or will the weight of his own past bring him down? Without Remorse keeps readers on edge until the very last page, exploring the depths of revenge, resilience, and redemption.

I really enjoyed creating this image. I made five different variations, and this is my favorite one.
Making the flag black and white and applying the vignette focuses attention on the main character. Although he appears disheveled and injured from his many battles within the story, he has a very determined and menacing look on his face.
Until next time,
Phil
