This Way Up.
In 2003 our festival of digital imaging had expanded to include video with our friends from City Eye. We had workshops and talks in traditional photography, digital photography and video. The exhibition included some fascinating work and was well worth a visit.

We teamed up with the John Hansard Gallery, Fotonet-south and St Mary’s Church for the use of their Community Gallery space and there was something for a variety of ages, interests and pockets from the very young upwards.
