Looking back over the exercises that have led to this point in the course i.e. poised to start on my first assignment, the first thing that strikes me is how much I've enjoyed the work. Secondly, how much I've learnt ..that is, in tackling the various exercises, I've not only had to think more about what I was trying to achieve but think carefully how my camera was contributing to the final result. This may seem rather odd to say but linking the technical and creative side continually is not something that came naturally ...it is still not quite second nature but I've set off in the right direction. I've also learnt to slow down and look more before lining up a shot ..I hadn't realised how much I rushed taking photographs.
Though I'm still suffering from the frustration of not always being able to deliver in photographic technique what my 'inner eye' is seeing maybe I'm becoming better able to analyse what isn't working even if the solution does not always present itself!
