YOUNG photographers in Banbury have found a novel way of taking unique snaps of their local area.

Members of the Grimsbury Youth Action Team, based in Grimsbury, have been taking pictures of different sites featuring miniature models of people.

With the help of local photographer Suzy Prior, the team have been learning a range of new camera skills before they were tasked with taking pictures themselves to help present the community from a different perspective.

They have been presenting the final work at a special exhibition at Naomi's Cafe Bar on Bridge Street.

The project was created with support from the OYAP (Oxfordshire Youth Arts Partnership) Trust, which supports young people across the county.

Project co-ordinator Carmen Hoepper said: "This project has been a fantastic journey for all involved.

"Not only did we challenge ourselves to learn new creative and technical photography skills but we challenged our attitudes as we began to think differently about our space."
