PICTURE BOOK
Commemorating the 800th Anniversary
of the sealing of the Magna Carta at Runnymede
|
Thank you for
your interest in my book. The Book has 265 quality page-indexed images relating to the historic
celebrations surrounding the 800th Anniversary of the Sealing of the Magna Carta, when
the eyes of the world became briefly focussed on I have worked
at Runnymede Borough Council for almost 20 years and my photographic hobby
has frequently afforded me the privilege of capturing Borough related events
both officially and unofficially. No other time has been more intense than
during our historic 2015 year, as I consciously attempted to maximize
opportunities to capture moments. Recognising
that I accumulated probably the widest possible collection of images relating
to the Commemorations for the 800th Anniversary of the Sealing of
the Magna Carta at Runnymede, I set about bringing the memories together, for
friends, colleagues, event participants and those interested in all things Runnymede
2015. I am not
promoting this book for profit, but prefer that it might become a record of
Runnymede 2015 to be shared, holding many memories for all the people
involved. Book Price £ 35 With the book’s
initial success (a big thank you for those
who supported the initial £40 price), and with the
arrival of further batches, I am now able to make the book available for £35, as
near as possible to cost, with collection locally by arrangement, or delivery
where possible. Please email me
if you are interested in obtaining a copy. I will then
provide details for electronic payment, or an address for a cheque. About the Book & How it came about ------------------------------------------------- I initially created the montage on the front of the
book. It was designed for a maximum stand-alone on-line print size of
45”by30”, and I soon received very encouraging comments from local
key-event-participants who enthused about displaying a copy. This made the
image the obvious choice for the front cover of the Book. I felt that even
with the images so small, it looked great. There are however many more images in the Book, and
all at decent size. I haven’t got too excited about my photographic
efforts before, but I believe this creation is something rather special. My
photography is just a hobby, and this is an opportunity to share some of my
achievements with a wider audience than normal. I believe this
book is the pinnacle of all my photographic endeavors thus far, and it is a joy
to be able to bring the best of my Runnymede 2015 experiences together in
this way. Alan Bostock |
