**Progress report #1 **
**What progress have you made on your project in the past few weeks?  Explain how you met your goals, or if you did not meet your goals, explain why this did not happen, what progress you did make and how you will make up for this. **


In the past weeks I have made good progress on my project. I got ahead on my thesis based research, and I have been practicing taking pictures, and learning the camera functions. I've photocopied important pages in one of my books because it had to be returned to ACCESS PA. I've been reading my books and i have been practicing the application of functions of my digital camera. I met my goals by getting tasks completed on time and constantly taking pictures to improve my affluence with the subject I am investigating. **What three goals do you have to accomplish before the next progress report is due? What input has your topic expert and/or mentor contributed to your progress in the last week? Have you asked anyone else for advice or help?**  By my next Progress Report, I must have the Thesis based Research, Topic Expert Signature, and formal Proposal, all completed. I also have to take some quality landscape photographs and animal photographs. In the last week, my topic expert has helped me with understanding the camera functions. My mentor has helped me in taking photographs and talked to me about coming up with new intriguing pictures. So far, I have not asked anyone else for assistance, and so far, I do not believe I will need much. <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">In the past weeks, I finished my thesis based research, and my formal proposal. I wrote a piece of my introduction, and finished my flyers and sign-up sheets for my project (currently getting approved by Mr.Hackney). I also borrowed my sister's Nikon D80 DSLR camera, and studied its functions. After taking dozens of pictures, I chose the ones I'm considering using. So far, i have met all of my goals, with the exception of taking more pictures, I'm limited to outdoor photography due to the inconsistent weather. I need to start cracking down on this paper, and continue experimenting with the camera. <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">**What three goals do you have to accomplish before the next progress report is due?

My mentor not only has been my test subject, but also the person I talk, and reflect with. I have asked Dru Calhoun about maybe hanging out during a period and taking photos, but other than that, i haven't asked anyone for help because I haven't really needed too. I also talked to my cousin in Brazil about photography. I posted her photo archive on the bottom of my wikispaces NAVIGATION SECTION.

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">In the past weeks, I took dozens of pictures, set up an archive on Flickr, and updated the pictures on this wikispace. I also handed in the mentor progress report, and i'm about half way finished my rough draft. I should have it by Tuesday, when it is going to be viewed. I met my goals by putting out a little effort everyday and slowly getting through it. I'm having a lot of fun taking pictures, and experimenting with the camera. I do not have the Rough draft complete due to the research that i am still doing, which isn't on paper, but rather out in the world taking pictures. I will get it done, like I always do. <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">**What three goals do you have to accomplish before the next progress report is due?

I shold also have hundreds more pictures, and i should have a lot of submissions to my photography competition. I asked my mentor for help a lot, with helping me take certain shots.

The paper is complete, the PowerPoint draft is complete, and the hand-on project is currently underway. I met my goals by using my time effectively. The photography contest, however, is not going as i planned, i don't think that people took it seriously, and there are not enough people in the competition. Hopefully i will have twice as many people in the competition as there are now, since i extended the deadline to a few days before i present.
