Project: Narrative
Exercise: A narrative picture essay.
For this exercise I chose to photograph an event. The event I chose was the Really Wild Food and Countryside Festival held in St David's Pembrokeshire in July. The event is held over two days and includes interesting foods, rural traditions, storytelling and alternative lifestyles. The event aims to Promote and showcase locally grown or produced food, or wild ingredients foraged from the hedgerows, coast, beach and river.
I have arranged the images so as to tell a story of the event:
 |
| Pembrokeshire Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers. Using traditional hand spinning wheels to spin sheep's wool ready for knitting and weaving. |
 |
| A Guild member hand spinning dyed wool for weaving. |
 |
| The dyed and spun wool is woven into cloth on a hand loom. |
 |
| Alternative lifestyles were displayed such as this Yurt. The Yurt is designed for year-round living. |
 |
| Small portable ovens allow food to be cooked near to where it is found. |
 |
| Pembrokeshire Falconry displayed a selection of hunting birds and owls. |
 |
| Large Eagle Owl. |
 |
| Large Owl |
 |
| The Icelandic Horse Society of Great Britain were present with a number of their horses. |
 |
| The Icelandic is the original horse of the Vikings, taken to Iceland over a thousand years ago and pure bred ever since. |
 |
| There were activities for all ages, such as this artificial climbing wall. |
 |
| Interesting food was cooked to order. The food available included locally caught seafood and food gathered from the hedgerows. |
 |
| Food cooked in the open air. |
 |
| Many stalls selling home made delicacies were to be found in the main marquee. |
