I always wanted to have a logo designed for my website. Everytime I started, I was biased and influenced by the logos that I had seen before, as, I always thought on those lines. Yesterday, being a weekend and summer ( already! ) here, I had not gone out anywhere for shoot and I had few hours of time for myself. Thanks to the bad internet connection, I couldn't even check my mails let alone browsing!!

I casually opened photoshop and realised that I can work on a new logo and started to play around with different tools available. After an hour I realised it was going nowhere and started to contemplate as to what the new logo should represent. One thing was clear - me being an ardent nature lover, I wanted some of the elements of nature to be present in the logo. But, I was not ready to compromise on the logo that does not represent the theme of " Frames from wild ". It simply didn't make any sense.

Finally, I jotted down these requirement and design goals:

1) The logo should have first 3 starting letters of the words "Frames from wild " i.e. F,F & W

2) The logo should look like a face of a wild cat - because I just simply love cats. If it looks like our own national animal - Tiger, it would be a bonus!

3) The logo should also have a TREE. According to me, without trees, out planet cannot sustain life. Little sensible, though not completely :)

I satdown for nearly 7 hours and I had few versions on the canvas but no where near what you see that's already up here. When I showed the logos to my mom and asked her as to what it looked like to her, she said - "this one looks like the face of a man!". Grrr... I had to do something about it !!

After hundreds of iterations at one point I hit gold, I was searching for something on photoshop, when I changed few color settings, I got this nice looking sort of beige color. It just popped up from nowhere! I was delighted. It was the 'light bulb moment' and it took me 9 full hours to reach here!!

Finally to change my mom's words, I came up with few long 'whiskers' to make it look like a cat !! By this time I had met all the desired design goals and it is finally up there.

I guess this will the logo of FFW for sometime now, may be for long too!

Let me know what do you think about it :)

Liked it very much.

Liked it very much. Symbolizes a lot of things and shows that a lot of effort has gone in it. Would have loved it better had it been a tad smaller. This seems too imposing.

Thanks Keshav, yeah I too

Thanks Keshav, yeah I too felt the same. I have updated now with a tad 'smaller version' :). Thanks for dropping by!

I remember seeing you many times...though havent spoken anytime. i guess this image of urs ...with your most passionate tools around was shot by Jayanth himself...right!!
This photo of urs was familiar to me as ur orkut profile pic as i have seen it in most of my friends list...thts quite obvious..!!
Well let me come to the point..now. The logo...is awesome...reflects..many things as in which u have mentioned in ur three pointers. Very creative...!!
I am into photography....but more into it...only from past few months.....after i got my SLR cam...otherwise i love taking images in a diff way...something which ppl usually dont take..something which shows the creative side of urs. I love nature photography also...but havent done much...as of now. Anyways it was wonderful to read ur blogs... will be peeping into ur blogs...for sure.
