This project is based on photography taken from key vantage points throughout the South Devon Area of Outstanding NaturalBeauty (National Landscape) to capture changes in the landscape over the next 20 years.
The use of a post mounted camera, that can be taken from site to site, ensures the same view extents are captured each time a visit is made.
Each set of photographs contributes to the ‘bigger picture’ and will aid our understanding of landscape change over time.
An information sheet, introducing the sites, kit, photos, results, and providing more background detail on why we are undertaking the project, can be downloaded on this page (see downloads).
View some early results from the Fixed Point Photography work.
There are eight Fixed Point Photography sites across the South Devon National Landscape; these are shown on the map (see downloads section on this page).
