Run A Picture Layout: Most gardens have either a rectangular layout, a diagonal layout or a circular layout. A rectangular approach consists of symmetrical features and a lot of straight lines and predictable curves, perhaps more suited to a small city garden than a larger country one. The built-in angle of a diagonal layout will offset features to produce a less predictable, more relaxed and interesting effect. A curved layout is good for large, rambling gardens.In planning the script, and in shooting the pictures, keep in mind that every picture story should have at least one highly pictorial or dramatic eye-catching shot which the magazine can display prominently in the layout, to capture the attention of the reader. One good, smashing eye-catcher can often sell a picture set even if all the rest are humdrum record shots, but it's hard to sell a collection of mediocre pictures without the one standout.
If the story shapes up as an eight-or-nine-picture layout, be sure to submit at least a dozen prints. If it is more elaborate and you think it might run a picture layout to several pages, submit a couple of dozen or more prints. |
