Daniel Thompson identifies several specific practical and theoretical/creative problems that could arise during his photography project. For practical problems, he may not be able to book equipment on time, photos could be lost if the SD card breaks, and he may run out of time to use Photoshop. He provides solutions like booking equipment early, backing up photos, and prioritizing which products to complete first. For theoretical problems, the models may not have enough time to finish shooting, weather could impact outdoor shoots, public could disrupt shoots, models may not be able to reach locations, and backup models are needed in case a model drops out last minute. Thompson plans backup shoot dates and locations to prepare for these potential issues.

Daniel Thompson conducted secondary research on photography magazines to inform the target audience and content for his own planned magazine. He found that the readers of Practical Photography are on average 48 years old, whereas he wants to target teens aged 16-19.

The history of tattoos spans thousands of years. Some of the earliest evidence of tattoos has been found on mummified bodies from ancient Egypt. Tattoos later spread from Egypt to other civilizations and made their way to China by around 2000 BC. Tattoos have served various purposes over time, including for communication, displaying rank or status, and marking criminals. They disappeared from Western culture for several centuries but were kept alive in other regions like Japan. Tattoos eventually made a comeback to the West in the 19th century and have since grown in popularity and social acceptance.
