New series I'm working on

[megan]

I'm a little obsessed with beaches and snow. I've shot countless rolls of both. I'm also *really* into abstraction - old school, I know, but it's what I'm attracted to and inspired by. So I've been taking some photos recently with a series in mind - along the lines of Stieglitz's equivalents, as well as inspiration from recently viewing some gorgeous Siskind prints - and taking it a step further and making a series of diptychs. All this is actually 35mm - the Holga doesn't seem like the best tool for the sort of abstractions I like to make.

Enough blah-blah-blah-ing! What I'd like to know is:
Does each set work together?
Is it clumsy when one is horizontal and one is vertical?
Would certain images just be better off by themselves, or are they too much like each other to be together and I should just choose one stand-alone image?

And, of course, any other comments you might have. They are a bit too contrasty and dark for me on this monitor, but each monitor here at work seems to be different.

Thanks, Megan
