However, I think overall this doesn’t quite hit the professional standards we’re aiming for in Year 13 so will prove to be a very good lesson for the coursework next year. EBI: I can see what you’re saying in the evaluation regarding composition but ultimately I don’t think your choice of image is right for a magazine cover – even a quirky one such as Wallpaper.
