Thank you. I am finding this course particularly interesting and challenging. I’m pleased I chose this photography course over the other due to the extra content included. Even at the halfway point I have learnt a lot and ready to soak up more. . The feedback I get from my mentor is constructive and appreciated. Ulleo admin has been very supportive with my self made hiccups along the way . Definitely looking forward to the rest of the course.
