Seeing the light in life [through photography]
Leader: Steve Radley
The gift of photography can enable you to discover your own life and surroundings in new ways. Photography is taken from the Greek words meaning ‘to draw’ and ‘light’, so literally means, drawing with light. The retreat will use light as a metaphor for life and explore ways of using the camera in a contemplative way to help us see light and life in its many forms.

Pilgrimage
Leader: Mandy Callf
