An Unbelievable Start
Wow. I can't believe the response the project has received in such a short space of time! As I write this, we're just a little over 36 hours into funding and have already hit 70% of the funding target. It's a really great feeling to know that there are so many folks as excited about this book as I am.
To everyone who's backed so far, my heartfelt thanks. To everyone who's helped by spreading the word, we wouldn't be here without you. Let's keep up the great work and push past the goal!
If and when the project surpasses its funding goal, I have a few ideas up my sleeve to make the final product even better. I'll be introducing new targets that, when reached, will benefit everyone who's backed to date as well as new supporters.
In the meantime, I thought you might enjoy a couple of teaser spreads from the book as a thank you. These are from the 'Landscapes' section of the book and I think they show well the way that I've tried to pick images that complement each other beautifully on facing pages.
Thanks again for all your support, and I'll be back in touch soon!
Cheers,
Peter
