NaPhoBoMo #1 Complete!
As I’m going to be quite busy this last November weekend, I’ve gone ahead and finished my photobook. Layout and some final shots were done last night. I used Aperture for the layout (after being a little unsatisfied with the options in iPhoto). I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. I might edit out a few pictures and/or make some replacements, before I create an actual physical copy, but I’m quite satisfied with it as a PDF.
Here it is: Andrew Berdan - Painting With Light
I might also post it later as a flickr set or slideshow or something, but that kind of wrecks the layout.
How’s everyone else doing?

About NaPhoBoMo
National Photo Book MonthA photographer's take on NaNoWriMo, the goal is to produce a 50-picture photobook in a month, from start to finish. This includes taking the photos, creating layout, editing for content, post-processing, all of it. In 30 days.
Q: What do I do?
A: Make a photo book with the following restrictions:
(1) All pictures must be taken in the month of November.
(2) All layout, editing, and post-processing must also be done during the month of November.
(3) The deadline for a final PDF is November 30th, at midnight.
(4) The final book must have at least 50 pictures.
(5) Post progress and completion at the NaPhoBoMo Site
Q: Why 50?
A: NaNoWriMo's goal is 50,000 words. And a picture is worth 1000 words.
Q: How do I join?
A: I'm still working on figuring something out to make that really nice, but in the meantime send me a note: andy at berdan dot ca - and I'll add you to the participants list.
Q: Who's responsible for this craziness?
A: NaPhoBoMo was created by Andrew Berdan.
