2. I advise next years AP Photography students to really try to tell a story in their series, it helps convey a more powerful message to audiences and makes your photography more interesting to look at; it was lacking in my series.
3. This year I learned a lot of principles of design which continue to help my photographs more interesting. I also learned some tips about lighting and exposure.
4. I would recommend changing the light assignment to maybe three types of light, with more emphasis on great execution of light. I think it is a very valuable assignment that we could have learned even more from.
5. This year I learned that my technical skills did not meet the standards in which I wanted to meet in my images. Imagining an image working is much easier than executing it; it's all about being in the right place at the right time with the right light or a way to illuminate things to have great light.
6. In the future I will continue to take photos frequently. I hope what I have learned in AP Photography will enhance the photos I continue to take of nature, family, friends, and wonderful places around the world.
