review 1: Already a fan of the photojojo website, when I spotted this book with a camera-harnessed dog on the cover, I couldn't resist!I really go along with the idea behind the book, that people should do something with all those digital pics they take instead of just leaving them on their cameras/computers. The book has a fun, irreverent tone and lots of neat project ideas. I'd like to remember/try:-Splitting up one photo into many smaller images, perhaps displaying in CD cases or making a photo puzzle-Simple magnetic photo chain-Magnetic fridge frames-Photo cupcakes! (icingimages.com)-Sneaky altoids photo album-One page of paper photo book-Cross-stitched photos-magnetic me head with outfits-photo silhouette prints-365 project(or maybe smaller, one month to start?)-photo time mach... moreine (recreating pics from youth)-spinning photos-photo safari (scavenger hunt)-tiny secret jacket spy cam
review 2: This book was a fun and interesting read. It is a combination of easy, inexpensive photo projects and ideas for different ways to use your camera - designed to inspire creativity. It did supply me with a few ideas for projects I might consider. I liked the suggestions at the end of the book for playing with the camera in new ways - take a picture a day for 365 days (photo daily journal), create a fish eye lens from a peephole, a diffuser from a white film canister, choose an adjective and shoot pictures that describe it, have a photo scavenger hunt with friends...I will say this was unlike any photo book I have read before. The writing style is off the wall and a little bit crazy with lots of side comments - makes it a fun read. There is also a website (of course!) and a newsletter that you can sign up for (I have) Read and enjoy :) less
