introduction
Visual Diary A Visual Diary is a record of all visual and written stimuli influencing or forming the basis of an idea for the photographic assignments and practical work to be completed. In its most basic form this could be a scrapbook full of tear sheets (examples) and personal scribbles. It would, however, be of far more value if your Visual Diary contained more detail relating to an increasing awareness of your visual development in discriminating between good and bad examples of location and studio lighting. This should include design, composition, form and light applicable to any visual art form.
