interesting question that i did not answer to myself yet. few years back i started printing photos, "exhibiting" them at my office (accounting) and after a while giving them to people that were part of it (that are at the photos or were there with me). So i don't really have photos in my archive of any kind, except HDD that keep piling up, with hope that they will not die.
I like the book idea, it is a lot of work to make a book that has sense and everything goes together. Now while writing, maybe i could make something from my local bends photo series.
