It is that time of year again when my photography students have to come up with an idea to peg a 3000 word essay on. I try not to guide with too heavy a hand but I have my weaknesses and maybe they creep through. This year appears to be coming up with a bumper crop of faves including
- Street Photography and the Privacy Laws,
- Using Toys to Create a Narrative (love that one)
- Voyeurism and Friends,
- The Relevance of Pinhole Photography in 21st Century, and then....
- Flowers...mmm not very radical is it? In the end I pinned her down to
- Studio Light V Natural Light, which is a start. So of course we have the usual suspects Mapplethorpe, Bourke White, Penn, then I remembered Van Dongen from years back and found these beautiful images on the Michael Hoppen Gallery website.
Sometimes it is the simplest things that give the most pleasure.

Tell the student who is writing "Using Toys to Create a Narrative" about Sandplay:http://www.sandplay.org/about_sandplay.html
also, tell your student I want to read his/her paper.
