It was great to make a quick trip over to Belfast earlier this week to catch the @belfastphotofestival 2025 exhibitions which have been taking place at venues across the city- including @ulstermuseum @goldenthread_gallery @bx_gallery.

It was also great to see work by alumni from @mfaphotobelfast in the programme.
