It may sound like a bad joke but this was the team's impression of Falmouth in a nutshell! Most obvious in the seaside town were the pensioners, young at heart, pottering about the pier or gossiping on benches. A builder photographed by Hussain, proudly posing with his arms crossed, formed an interesting reference point with Saudi where the vast majority of labourers are immigrants and there is generally no pride taken by Saudis in such jobs.

Having been taken on a tour of UCF and round Falmouth by lecturers of the university, the team were encouraged to photograph whatever moved them about the town and then presented their work to the group at the end of the day.
