Here is an outline of my ideas that I am thinking about covering in my final report on Photography. I am thinking of writing about different trends in photography, ranging from different cameras and the times of photos they take (slides, digital, polaroid, etc.) to different trends in photography. I would then proceed to talk more about Facebook and it's influences in photography: how it has made images more readily available to the public, how it has changed the way some people think about taking photos ("Oooo lets take a good picture and put it as our profile picture!") and the way it has changed the way photos are taken (when photos only have two heads in them because that's as far away as one of the people can get their arms away with the camera.) OR possibly talking about digital art.
I would LOVE some feed back from people to see what they think i should talk more about or things that wont be so interesting, as I would like to cover all of these topics but obviously can't...
