Ten-minute walk

 

 

How often do we walk past somewhere, busy thinking, talking or texting and not really noticing our surroundings?

 

Do our ten-minute walk photography exercise. Upload to our online media album.  Share with friends and family or submit to our Communal Gallery.

 

What this exercise might offer:

This exercise:

• Helps us to notice our surroundings in a different way

• Gives us an opportunity to take some time out as well as enjoying some exercise and breathing in fresh air (well, maybe not so fresh in the middle of the city)

• Encourages us to appreciate the small things. This can contribute to building a positive outlook

• Prompts connection with others through sharing

 

You will need:

• A camera or camera ‘phone – for the walk

• A pen/pencil – for afterwards

• Paper
