2 walks took place in the build up to the book launch. A zine has been created featuring images from each of our participants (images below). This walk was provided free of charge thanks to kind support from Creative Black Country.
"I’m interested in encouraging people to look more carefully at their surroundings and to perhaps reassess their idea of what is interesting or aesthetically pleasing. I also think it’s important to challenge the idea that you need access to expensive equipment and training in order to produce thought provoking images. It’s mainly about what you choose to look at." - Black Country Type.
