As you can see I've started a draft of my first assignment. My idea is to:
1: Find a subject.
2: Reason for this subject.
3: Decide on a title.
4: Wright about the subject (Brief history).
5: Provide pictures of the subject.
As I've spent some time at Salford Quays over the last five weeks and taken quite a lot of shots of the area, I'd like to use this in my assignment. Any advice or criticisms would be appreciated

A brief statement as to the intended purpose of the photography to be undertaken:
I was inspired to take on this piece of work after passing through Trafford Park on my way to Salford Quays. I must admit that I could not recognise most of Trafford Park , it seemed like a ghost town, as I hadn’t been there for many years. I first went there as a young boy of about seven or eight years old (1959-1960), along with my father who worked for Metro Vickers. We arrived late in the afternoon just as the day shift was ending, and I couldn't believe just how many people worked there, especially when that was only the day shift. There was a whole fleet of buses there just to take the workers home, the bus queues were about two or three people deep and about fifty yards long. All of the buses were cram-packed with people standing right to the rear entrance of the bus. Also there was what seemed to be hundreds of bikes and herds of people making their way home on foot.
