Week 88 "Three Mornings"

I decided to follow through with a project I’ve had in mind for some time, to photograph crumpled bed sheets each morning, for a month, for a portfolio. The idea came to me first in a hotel room a few years ago, then when we were in Waikanae on the way to the Jaguar rally last Easter (“Rested”, Week 9 of Project 52). And then a photography friend who lives in the North Island did a similar thing, but she printed hers on tiny glass slides. Glass slides in a portfolio would be too risky, and I didn’t want to copy her idea of putting them onto glass, although I loved the contrast of a warm, comfortable, soft bed, with the fragility of her glass slides.  I’ve put mine together as a grid, and am happy with the printed result, five across and six down.
