Hedge End Photowalk
About this Event
Join Tom Westbury, on a walk into the ‘edge lands’ where nature and human-altered spaces meet, to explore how landscape photography can reveal things about the way we live and interact with the world around us.
The perfect walk for people with an interest in photography, social issues, landscape and land use, the local area, housing developments, architecture and ecology.
The walk will take you along public footpaths around a new housing development on the outskirts of Hedge End, capturing images of the local area that highlight the blurring of urban and wild spaces.
