I I’ve stopped taking photos
which will undoubtedly
affect my time, it will also pro-
vide invaluable memories of the
longest walk of my life.
C ombining walking with
taking photos is a way of
maintaining a perfect balance of
physical and mental health. My
sense of creativity is enhanced
by movement and exposure to
changing scenery, and boosted
by the release of serotonin, cre-
ating a ‘natural high’.
How to join a photow-
alk near you?
M any cities and towns host
photowalks. Whether as a
tourist or a local, you’re bound
to discover something new and
unusual on these walks, and
probably make friends along the
way. They are often used for
corporate team-building as a way
of being mindful of your sur-
roundings.
S ome offer practical advice on
how to use your camera,
while others focus more on the
highlights of the route alongside
fanciful stories of history and
intrigue that make the photos all
the more interesting.
