Book Layouts

I have decided to look at books and 'My Publisher' programme to get some ideas and inspiration about how I want my own book to look. I am focusing on looking at layouts and the whole set out of the photographs in the book.

I have started off by looking by Soth's book ' Sleeping by the Mississippi'. 

I really like how the image is central, it is a very simple layout which i like. I also like how the image looks framed by the outside of the book. I want to keep the layout of my book very clean and simple. Most of my images are going to be landscape, and I am keeping a consistent size throughout.
