Try, try again

I had originally intended to write the "Try, try again" article for our 3rd newsletter, but when that started to overflow and grow into an entirely different kind of article altogether, I decided to let the writing take me where it would take me and instead ended up with "I, Anatopism" instead for the 3rd newsletter. This pushed "Try, try again" into Newsletter no 4, and once again, I needed to shoot a photo illustration for my article.

"Try, try again" was inspired by products like the Mac mini, which although seems like an entirely new, ground-breaking product, was actually the product of decades of trial and error on the part of Apple and NeXT Computer, proof that perseverance pays it's dividends eventually. Luckily, I happen to own a Mac mini myself, and it was a case of showing off the Mac mini the way it really shines - a depiction of all that computer power inside a casing that is smaller than many textbooks.

So with a few books duly arranged on the table top at work and unecessary background clutter cleared away, the photo below was shot and ultimately used to illustrate the article.
