The 2009 Georgia fishing regulations book is the first that we have produced for the state. We will soon be working on the re-design of their hunting regulations, as well.
There was not much time allowed for this project. I feel that the visual improvements to the layout, despite the copy-heaviness of the contents, have resulted in a much easier-to-read book. Below are some examples of pages for which I feel my re-design efforts made the most impact.
I pulled a single image from the original cover (left) to use as the focus of the new cover (right). The goal at my company is to develop regulations that blend well with other outdoor-themed magazines with which they may share shelf space. This was the focus of my re-design.

Love your work...you have found your calling!

Great work! What a wonderfully clear example of what a real graphic designer can do (and do well).
I thank you so much, Grapple00!
