In 1986, from noon on
Friday 24th October to noon Saturday 25th October over fifty
local photographers from 4 photographic clubs captured over
800 images of daily life in and around Colchester, Essex, UK
Twenty five years later
this was repeated with the daily activities of the town
captured again
On this occasion advances
in technology allowed nearly 200 local photographers capture
approaching 10,000 images on their camera phones, compact
cameras and professional Digital and Film SLRs from noon on
Friday 21st October 2011 to noon on Saturday 22nd October
2011 and contributed these
to the 2011 Day in the Life of Colchester photographic
archive
