I have focused on the presentation of my work for the Work in Progress Portfolio this week. I was advised in my 1-2-1 with my tutor to strip down the layout, text and style to the bare minimum, move words further away from the text and convert the images to the same aspect ratio. I have done this in all but one image.
It will be interesting to hear the feedback from my tutor and other webinar participants tomorrow. I feel I am now close the finalising my work. The tasks I have left to do are:
- Finalise the choice of images and process them accordingly
- Finalise the words
- Determine the order of the images
The images from my current portfolio can be seen below. Please note that because the pages are now white they are not distinct from the background of the blog page:
I have drafted the words for my Oral Presentation and loaded most of the slides in the Resources Library. I have done some remedial work on my Critical Research Journal and will continue with both of these tasks next week alongside finalising the Work in Progress Portfolio.
I would be really grateful for feedback from readers of my blog on the images, words and presentation.

My name is Alison Price and for the past ten years I have travelled the world photographing wildlife, including Alaska, Antarctica, Borneo, Botswana, the Canadian Arctic, Kenya, Rwanda, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
Lovely, delicate impressions of the environment with striking variety from a very specific location. the words are special in the they graduate from quite soulful and reflective thoughts towards much more optimistic feelings which I hope bring you to some level of reconciliation. the abstract nature produced lengthy observation and suggests the images have longevity. They would, I believe, show even grater attraction if printed large. Presentation on a computer simply does not do them justice.
Practically, I found the text rather small to read on the screen, but not knowing the final form of presentation.
Many thanks for your kind words. It is good to hear positive feedback in bringing my portfolio together for submission.
