Photo Marathon 2012


As part of the Bristol Festival of Photography and after three fantastic annual events, Second Look has teamed up with the Mshed on the Bristol waterfront to bring you another helping of photo fun.

What is a Photomarathon?

Don’t worry, there’s no running involved! The event is a day to challenge you to think creatively, meet new people and have some fun. Each entrant will receive a disposable camera and a list of topics to capture. The subjects must be taken in the order which they are provided. Only one picture can be taken to represent each topic.

Registration

All participants are to meet on May 5, 2012 at the Mshed between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.. Cameras need to be returned to Mshed by 5 p.m. Mshed is also going to be used as a base throughout the day for people to pop in & catch their breath. If you have not been able to finish all topics, your completed subjects will be shown in the exhibition, so please still return the camera.
