Isn't Suffolk simply amazing? A great place to grow up, go to school, live, work and visit - simply amazing! As a celebration of this fact, Stour Valley Photography's photographer, David has teamed up with Suffolk parents' magazine, Raring2Go, to produce a fun piece of art called... ‘A Portrait of Suffolk’ ‘A Portrait of Suffolk’ will celebrate the vibrant community that is made by the people who live in the area, together with the unique architecture and landscapes that make Suffolk such a great place to live. David has captured and published plenty of images from around the county in the past - but to capture the community too - your community - we need your help! Our aim is to produce a large piece of art depicting some of the area’s better known landmarks - and to present them in the form of a mosaic, where each ‘tile’ in the mosaic is the face of a Suffolk resident - and every one a Raring2Go reader! To complete this project we need around 3000 photos of Raring2Go readers, their children and their friends... What do we want? We want your photo! The photos need to be fairly close-up portraits (see the example below) and photos taken on mobile phones or small digital cameras will be just fine, so there’s no excuse for not taking part! |
