To support the 2026 BCO conference
photography competition we’re running
a workshop & walking tour so you can
understand how to get the best out
of the amazing camera technology
in your mobile phone. The workshop
will start by going over key settings on
your device to make the most of your
mobile camera. We will set off from
the financial district onto the historic
West Port and the Vennel, where you
can capture shots such as the iconic
castle framed by the narrow alley and
old buildings. You will learn how to use
the available light to your advantage
and understand how to compose your
shots. At the end of the walk, we’ll share
photos and discuss editing tips to take
your images to the next level.
All fringe events - excluding the cycling and golf - are free to
attend but require booking and are subject to a charity donation.
