The topic of Scotland´s independence is recently one of the most popular in England as it means that Scotland might no longer be part of the Kingdom. I wanted to know  Preston´s view on the referendum which is going to take place in 2014. I have asked people of different ages and genders whether they think Scotlant should be an independent country and also if the 16 and 17-year-olds should have the right to vote.
I have asked:
Ellie, 28
Sara, 35
John, 67
Elliot, 19

Images Skills Test

Images Skills Test
This is one of my assignments for Multimedia Journalism module. The photograph represents the Preston North End football club based in Preston, Central Lancashire. It has been cropped and resized for the purposes of this assignment. The requirements were as follow:
1. The oryginal picture
2. The thumbnail, 100 x 100 pixel
3. 400 x 300 pixel in jpg format. I have removed a part of the left side of my picture which was unnecessary and did not add anything interesting to the whole.
4.  200 x 500 pixel in jpg format. I have chosen the sign of the football club to be included in the picture to make  its massage straightforward.
