Details: For this event, we'll be heading over the border into Cambridgeshire for a photo walk in one of the UK's smallest cities - Ely. After meeting outside the station, we'll take a walk along the riverside before heading up through the town to the Cathedral. Ely is widely known as 'Ship of the Fens' due to the Cathedral standing tall over the city and surrounding flat marshland landscape, it can be seen from miles around. The Cathedral is open to visitors and I'm pleased to say that photo walks have been given permission to visit as a group. With incredible architecture and a beautiful painted ceiling, the awe inspiring building is one of my favourites in the world.
Photo walks are aimed primarily at beginner and hobbyist photographers but all abilities are welcome. Due to the group size and mix of abilities, walks tend not to be 'in depth' technical tuition sessions but are more of an opportunity for like minded people to practice a great hobby with some professional direction, inspiration and guidance. All very relaxed, friendly and fun.
