our photographic exhibition
?>
This term we took some photos with the school’s digital cameras. Students learned how to frame shots and how to delete ones they didn’t want. At the end of the term we held an exhibition in the school/community library. The students looked through the photos they had taken and selected two which were printed and exhibited.
It was quite interesting to see which photos they selected – often they selected them because it was a photo of their friend/s. Have to say, I found this a little frustrating as there were often other photos they’d taken which I considered to be much better, artistically – but I had to let them choose by themselves.
On the day of the exhibit we mounted the printed photos on card and then put them on little stands. The students had a great time setting up the exhibition. We also had a visitors’ book and it was wonderful to read the comments afterwards.
A big thanks to our library staff who let us have the exhibition, and to all those who came a long.
(P.S. – as soon as I can figure it out I’ll get a gallery up with the photos that were in the exhibition.)
Well done to you all.
You have some very clever photographers in your class and
I very much enjoyed looking at your exhibition.
Congratulations on a great effort Mr. Claridge.
