Homage is the title of our new photography brief and what we needed to do was to portray time on the photos.

My initial thought was to show different people walking on the streets from the same angle (of the camera view) and by adjusting the shutter speed, get the sense of the movement of both the camera and the subject.

FMP UPDATE ...

The source of inspiration was the traditional cultural heritage of Iran with its calligraphy, symbols, motifs, patterns and colors which were transformed into contemporary art.

I design this poster for a kick start of my FMP and also as a reminder to myself to study this art form and investigating into the new ways of developing it further.
