From the Beginning

After being introduced today to the concept of a reflective journal, a form of blog in which I shall record any inspiration, ideas and feedback from my tutors and workshops, I will now begin to present them here.

I can now begin to document any aspects of the course which I may need to come back to reflect upon at a later date, or any inspiration which may impact any future work.

I am going to start with my images from my summer project; we we asked to produce three images which reflected our personal style and demonstrated a technical skill of our choosing.

I chose to present two fashion based portraits of my friend Megan which I shot over the summer and a shot of a bee on a flower demonstrating a shallow depth of field.

This mini brief served as a way of getting back into the swing of manipulating camera settings in manual mode and a good ice breaker at the beginning of the course surrounded by lots of new faces.
