Martin Parr Visits The Isle of Wight

Martin Parr Visits The Isle of WightA couple of weekends ago, world famous photographer Martin Parr visited the Isle of Wight with a group of Parr enthusiasts.

The weekend trip was organised by the excellent School of Life and we were fortunate enough to have lunch with Martin and the group down on Ventnor seafront near the end of their trip.

Coming up over the next week or so will be podcasts of interviews with world famous Martin Parr as well as The School of Life Director, Sophie Howarth (update: hear interview with Sophie).

In the meantime, The Times journalist, Sue Foll, who took part in the weekend course gives her view of the visit to the Isle of Wight, along with pictures featuring sunbathers on Ventnor beach.

Our favourite Island photographer Julian Winslow was on hand to take some shots, so expect some great photography too.
