This week I finished my first typology photography project for my PO106 digital processing class. I decided to photograph fire hydrants since I have noticed over the years that they come in many colors and styles. When I started this project, paying more attention to the fire\u00a0hydrants\u00a0around me, I was surprised that you can find two or three different styles on almost every street.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I photographed about 30 different hydrants over four days, then I sorted them based on style and color. Next I\u00a0whittled\u00a0them down to the best nine. Finally, I\u00a0considered what order to present them. After trying about ten different layouts I decided on the layout you see here. I really enjoyed the process of putting together this typology and I am certain it is just the first of many to come.<\/p>\n
