- Second part of the session consisted of a photo walk; this offered photographers an opportunity to be around like-minded photographers, practicing existing and new skills in the field. The session was designed to cater for all learning opportunities within both the creative and technical fields. Participants were given photographic themes throughout the Photo Walk to challenge their photography and examine how they make their images.
