Capturing Cardiff – A Red Perspective

It’s always refreshing to take a different perspective on things.  Our latest online lecture saw Daniel Meadows, a self-confessed hippy taking to the stage to inspire his avid audience to do just that.  An advocate in alternative story telling, Daniels photo-films create a fresh angle on how news can be presented or events recorded.

This weekend, I witnessed and took part in two momentous yet contrasting events in Cardiff.  On Saturday, the city was a sea of red as Welsh rugby fans flooded the streets and bars to support their team against the All Blacks.  On Sunday, red poppies were proudly pinned to every member of the sombre crowd that gathered to pay their respects in remembrance of those lives lost to conflict. 

As pictures speak louder than words, here are a few snaps from my red weekend.
