About this Event

You loved it. You sold it out. Now Punting Perspective is back.

After selling out in just days, one of Cambridge Photography Month's most unique photography experiences returns this October.

We're taking two private punts onto the River Cam, heading behind the historic Cambridge Backs for a view of the city you simply can't get from the streets.

For one evening, Kings, Queens, Clare, St John's and Trinity become your backdrop as we glide along the river, giving you an uninterrupted and constantly changing perspective of some of Cambridge's most iconic architecture.

🎟️ BOOK EARLY — LAST TIME THIS SOLD OUT IN DAYS

📸 Cambridge, From a Different Angle

You've photographed Cambridge from the streets.

Now photograph it from the water.

From the reflections on the Cam to the towers, bridges, courtyards and historic buildings rising above the Backs, this experience gives you the opportunity to capture familiar landmarks in a completely different way.

We'll take our time on the river, allowing you to concentrate on composition, perspective, light and those fleeting moments that make an image special.

🚣‍♂️ Two Punts. One Incredible View.

With two private punts taking to the river, you'll have plenty of space to get comfortable with your camera and experiment with different compositions.

We'll travel behind some of Cambridge's most famous colleges, including:

🏛️ King's College
👑 Queens' College
🏛️ Clare College
🏰 St John's College
🎓 Trinity College

With the river providing a constantly changing foreground, you'll discover new compositions around every bend.

🌆 Shoot Cambridge at Its Best

As the light changes, so does the city.

Capture:

📸 Historic architecture from the water
🌊 Reflections across the River Cam
🏛️ The Cambridge Backs from an exclusive viewpoint
💡 Changing light and atmospheric conditions
🚣 Movement and perspective from the punt

It's an opportunity to slow down, experiment and photograph Cambridge in a way that most people never get to experience.

🧭 A Photography Experience Like No Other

This isn't your usual photography walk.

You're on the river, surrounded by some of Cambridge's most historic architecture, with the freedom to concentrate on your photography while our experienced punters navigate the Cam.

You'll receive guidance throughout the experience, with plenty of opportunity to ask questions, experiment with your camera and make the most of the unique surroundings.
