West Midlands Photography Collective

You can't beat a bit of Birmingham blossom! It's that time of year again, when Oozells Square, outside @ikongallery in Birmingham city centre, springs to life with glorious pink cherry blossom. Beloved by bees, birds and Brummies alike, it's well worth paying it a visit!

An out of this world art installation can now be found at @millenniumpoint! "Gaia" comes with an important environmental message too! Artist Luke Jerram hopes that seeing Earth as if from space will highlight its beauty and fragility, inspiring viewers to look after our only home

Have you spotted any fantastic fungi? Share your photos with us! We love to see what you've spotted. Here are a few of our favourites from this year so far!

Wishing everyone a very happy #BirminghamPride weekend! The natural world is a melting pot of life and colour which shows us all that we're #StrongerTogether. Nature needs everyone and we all need nature, so let's celebrate #diversity and #biodiversity!

Are you noticing the changing of the seasons? We certainly are! Autumn is a wonderful time for walks in the wild, full of colour and interest, with migrant birds returning and deer rutting, it's worth the wait each year!

‘Brum Through a Lens: A Birmingham Photography Trail’ was produced with @WestMidsPhotogs It’s a looping walk across some of the best Brum sights. So pick up a camera (and camera) and snap those waterway, streets and the odd hidden gem! roundhousebirmingham.org.uk/2021/07/29/aud…
