HOW TO ENTER DV&S

(Closing date March 31, 2007)

ENTRY FORMS are now available. Go to developingvisionandstyle.com and click on the link "Download a Developing Vision & Style entry form".

• You can submit a maximum of 6 pictures that you believe represent your vision and which can act as discussion points about your style.

• On the question of vision and style, we want you to respond to as many of the following questions as possible (in a sentence, or a paragraph or more each). Also, please ask any questions you believe are relevant to the DV&S debate – and answer them too! Your contributions are vital to the success of making DV&S and making it a really useful resource book for all photographers:

- What does vision mean to you?
- How would you describe your vision? What is it based on? Is it evolving? If so, in what way?
- How do you try to convey your vision through the pictures you make?
- What does style mean to you?
- Do you have a style of your own? How would you describe it? Is it evolving? If so, in what way?
- Might style enhance/limit creativity? If so, how?
- Has digital photography affected vision and/or style for better or worse?
- Which photographers do you admire? What is it about their vision and/or their style that inspires you?
- Are there particular images of Charlie’s, Joe’s and David’s which have inspired you with their vision – why? Do the ‘trio’ have recognisable styles? If so, can you describe them?
- What can we learn from looking at the work of other photographers?
- You may have other questions that you'd like to address, too, in which case go for it!

• Also, please add any further thoughts about 'Vision' and 'Style', as well any questions for the ‘trio’ which could relate to their work as much as yours.

USEFUL LINKS
Also, to make the book a really useful resource, it would be great if you could include any useful weblinks, books/articles you’ve read, or other sources of inspiration on the subject of vision and style. They don’t have to be just photographic links.
