The Monthly Special



Every month I run a special on one of my photographs. I call this, "The Monthly Special" and it allows you to buy one of my photographs for less than I normally charge.

Certainly you might ask, why? I do this for the simple reason that I want you to be able to start a collection of Bob Sachs Photographs that you can afford as a first time collector.

The specials can be photographs that are featured on the website, or photographs that have yet to appear. Whatever the case, you can count on the same quality that I normally sell.

The special for this month (March) is called, "Swing Still" and it was taken in Ojai California at a playground.

What caught my interest was the knotted rope that was securing the swing seat. So many knots to hold up a swing used by children!
For this photograph to convey what I saw, I needed to focus on the knots, throw the background out of focus, and capture a part of the swing.

I think I was successful in what I was trying to achieve. What do you think? Did I need to show more of the swing? And what about the background, does it work with the muted colors of brown and green?

I'm interested in your feedback, please comment.


So there you have it,"The Monthly Special."
