This is my end product. I dont think it is terrible but I was hoping to do better.

I am nearly at the finishing stages of my primary school prospectus. I am glad at the fact I have been able to get on with it and do what i need to do even though i am not very good at photoshop. However looking at what is nearly a finish product I am not very pleased of the quality of my school prospectus but Miss Breen says I am bound to get better in time. I am making a conscious effort to try and improve on photoshop but I feel as if its taking me too long to get a hang of this.  I am now just looking foward to finishing this task and getting on with the next one as it is becoming not so pleasant.

Today went much better for the first time. Though I still needed assistance in working photoshop I was able to get a lot more done and edited. I also feel like I am understanding more of the features of Photoshop. I know understand the use of The layers and can confidently change the size of images and its rotation. For the first time, it seems as if I am making progress.

Today i was able to take photos of year 7's in my school. I intentionally tried to take pictures that help make it look as if the school children were from the same school. This was challenging but i think i done a good job of this today. I have displayed some of the pictures above.

This lesson did not go any better, i am beginning to think that Photoshop may be a weak point of mine. Many other people in my class are getting the hand of the program as many people have previous computer knowledge, however i have not done any classes on IT since 3 years ago. I think my little knowledge on computers means that Photoshop surely wont be a strong point of mine.

Today i finally got started on my preliminary task on Photoshop. In all honesty i found it terrible. As i have not used Photoshop since our Photoshop lesson, i had forgot all the little things that i had picked up before. This lesson i was completely lost.

Today was much better, after re - scheduling my appointment with potter street primary school i was finally able to get hold of a high quality camera and go to the school to take the photos I needed. The headteacher was very helpful and polite in showing me round the school and allowing me to tkae pictures. I was also able to take pictures of some teachers who kindly agreed to participate.
This same day, I was finally also able to think of a solution to my problem. i have decided that i will use the school that I am in to take pictures of year 7's. I have chosen year 7s and the smallest ones as they will look most similar to primary school children. I am over the moon that most of my photos have been done and this means i can now get on and start on photoshop.
