what do you think?
I have been making landscape images by placing photographs side by side. The appearance of these images changes by the sequencing of the photographs. I think A is more coherent and easier to 'see' as a landscape than B. I find B intriguing, because it has a different kind of composition, more distant and less central than A.I am interested in what others think about A and B. Do you prefer one over the other?

B:
(images are from a landscape series made using a digital camera with malfunctioning sensor)

Arthur,
First of all...what a creative idea! I like your messed up sensor pictures. I prefer the first set of landscape pictures, probably because the lines lead you through the picture. In the second set, you're not sure which way to look first. good job.

Thanks for your feedback Jodi.
I have been thinking about how to approach the sequencing of images. It seems like it is better to choose more conventional (or obvious) connectors than pushing the envelope. I normally approach 'the visual' with the assumption that unconventional is better. But this sequencing thing might be more like music, where the intuitive is obvious - and usually better.
