Following "Traces Through Time"  and "Dylan Thomas' Swansea Memory, Identity and Place proposal I dveloped my idependent project as as ‘An ugly, lovely town… crawling, sprawling… by the side of a long splendid curving shore’. Dylan Thomas’ Swansea: Memory, Identity and Place’. Building upon my intial proposal I am to explore the themes of memory, identity and place in relation to photography through the eyes of Dylan Thomas. I aimed to convey this through visiting sites and undertaking shoots  at Rhossili ( The setting of "Extraordinary Little Cough"  , Cwmdonkin Park ( the setting of "The Hunchback in The Park" and "Return Journey") and Swansea City Centre (the setting of "Return Journey").
