Thursday mornings consist of C.C.S classes with a David, our lecturer. It's some what of a history class. At the moment we are finding out and discussing the history of the college. How the building it self used to be a laundry, whee young women would be forced to go to against their will, work for nothing and be treated terribly.

Outside the college canteen, in the hall, hangs a photo of one of the colleges stairways and a photo shopped image of a ghostly figure hovering over tyhe bottom steps. The image has also been put in the negative.

The class were giving the task of capturing an image of the stairs in the college. Here are mine...

 
 
 
 
I took the pictures of the old, original staircase at a distorted angle to mirror the cruelty that comes with the past/history of the old building. The brightness of the digital images was however to show the positive atmosphere of the building at present day, acting as a college where creativity and    individuality are encouraged. I do find that in the first photo of the two, that the brightness actually adds a sense of eiry-ness to the scene. The stairs seems daunting.
