Working as a photo edit this week, i read three classmates’ story and give some suggestions to their job as following.
To Lindsay
1) There may be some problems when people see your slideshow by using IE. So it would be necessary to give a note to the readers and tell them to read it under Firefox. (I guess it could be useful since I read it without any problems)
2) For the rest photos which illustrate your text, I suggest it would be better to resize those photos in similar size for a good visual effect.
3) I notice that you mentioned some theoretical concepts on Fengshui like “Ying and Yang” and I think it may be cool to add some photos or pictures in order to illustrating those concepts which are hard for people especially foreign readers to understand.
To Tamara
1) It may be better t to have a consistent on the photo-size.
2) I notice that you added text captions to some of your photos, and it would be better to give text caption to the rest too, especially to the photos which are not related to your interviewees, say, the first one. It will be easier for reader to understand them.
Besides, I’d like to remind please take care about the copyright thing, but I guess all the photos are taken by you.
To Du Ting
1) It would be better to add specific text captions to the photos. Although you have already use one sentence to express what you shot, it seems too general for reader especially ones who have never been Hong Kong.
2) As a photo essay, I suggest it would be better to use more categories of photos on the city’s charming characters as you did. What you have put may be too general for the readers.
3) I am sorry but I didn’t find the “splendid light at nigh” part.
4) I suggest it may be more workable if you try to use slides to show your photos.
