Last couple of weeks of the final module I have been quite busy with various things. I met with historian Jonny McNee who helped me with the final bits of information (for captions) I needed on sites Limavady and Eglinton. The main bulk of my time took completing my pdf for my book which you … More FMP Week Twenty-two – Twenty-five Final Post

This week I met with historian Ernie Cromie, I have worked with him throughout the project but wanted him to view every image to see if anything significant came up about the image that I could use as context in my captions. I have a whole list notes that I will aid me when it … More FMP – Week Twenty-two

Quick post this week as I was on holiday but I managed to watch the guest lecture by Victoria Forrest. I have watched a couple from Victoria and she is certainly very knowledgeable around the subject of publishing and gives great insight on different ways to achieve this. A few points from the lecture: How … More FMP – Week Twenty-one

This week I just prepared for portfolio reviews that were put on by Belfast Photo Festival and were held at the Metropolitan Arts Centre (MAC) in Belfast.

I will keep this post quite brief as more detailed post can be found in project development. In these 3 weeks I achieved a last minute shoot (as the weather was not great), my exhibition and my reflection on outcome. In the lead up to my exhibition I found out that space would be an … More FMP Week Sixteen – Eighteen

This week was very busy, if the weather was right I was out capturing sites. I achieved quite a lot and I’m nearly there with finishing the project for Living Legacies, just the captions and printing to finish.

This week I returned to Ulster Aviation Society Museum (UAS). I was granted permission to photograph the hangars anytime, so just waiting on the weather so I can return around sunset time. I had a good look around the WW2 exhibition to see if I can add anything to my body of work. I was … More FMP – Week Fourteen

Not much development for this week, I was not here for the weekend and for the rest of the week it rained so no new imagery took place. I processed the film from the Greencastle shoot and reloaded film. I scanned the film in and I am beginning to have doubts about using film. The … More FMP – Week Thirteen
