My name is Catriona Jennings and I’m a student on the photography course, my second course with London Art College. I did the children’s illustration a few years ago. I signed up for the photography course just before Christmas.
One of the reasons I chose this particular course was that I really enjoyed the forum and found the support from other students really helpful. The forum also provides support in solving technical problems. So now I have a new bridge camera and am learning how to use it.
I started the 52-week illustrative challenge on the forum and then thought it would be really nice to have a photography one as well so I found the camera shy 52-week challenge. Each week there is a theme and the group provides a lot of positive feedback and great ideas. I also really enjoy having the challenges on the forum. The latest one is ‘Wood’ and so I’ve been out and about to try find nice pictures.
I would love to see some work, not only from other photography students, but also from other courses. I enjoy taking pictures of animals and perhaps they might be useful to the pet portrait students. I have included a picture of a female mallard duck I took a few days ago.
