We had our 8th photographic workshop in January 2019 lead by Matt Emmett from Forgotten Heritage.

We returned to the Wisbech General Cemetery to have a go at Light Painting for the practical part of the session. Light Painting is a photographic technique of moving a light source while taking a long exposure photograph to illuminate a subject or space.

It was a fantastic and very atmospheric location for trying out this new skill and it was great to see the renovated chapel too! Thanks to Lorena for providing the tea and biscuits after.

Photos from participants to be added to this page as they are submitted.

We are now starting to think about the final exhibition to be held later in the year at the Wisbech & Fenland Museum. More news coming soon…
