Joensuu will first time take part in Scott Kelby Worldwide Photo Walk.

Joensuu will for the first time take part in Scott Kelby Worldwide Photo Walk ( #WWPW ) on October 5, 2013. Come and take part in the global photography walk. Seats are limited to 50 people.

Here is information about the photo walk from previous walks we made:
Usually, there is no theme in photo walk. Everyone comes their camera, phones, etc and shoot whatever comes during the walk, everyone walking same path takes different types of photo based on their interest. Being with other photographers helps one to see things in ways others hadn’t noticed before.


Here is the link and more information about the walk in Joensuu:

Photo Walk Description
We will meet next to the statue of the wolf which is in Kauppakatu. Walking through the Keskuskuja, we walk next to the Art museum and walk through the beautiful walking path of Siltakatu. There we walk between the beautiful falling yellow leaves until Länsikatu. Then we turn to the Friendship park located at the corner of Siltakatu, Länsikatu and Koskikatu. We spend some time there. After that we continue along Koskikatu, next to the Joensuu city library, forward to the school, Carelicum. We go through the yard of Arts and Crafts centre next to Carlson. We come out from the Rantakatu, cross the street, go next to the river. Then we walk under the Suvantosilta bridge and end our walk behind the Joensuu City theatre.

Things to consider:
- Camera(s), batteries fully charged. It is advised that you don’t bother taking all your camera gears but think beforehand what kind of photos you take and thus take only one lens with you, lighters the better.
- A good walking shoes, preferably warm and can stand wet situation. You should be able to manage with your sports shoes or rubber boots.
- Comparatively warm clothes.
- Food / snacks after the walk or during the walk.
- Just in case it rains, take umbrella or raincoat.


Scott Kelby’s Worldwide Photo Walk is the world’s largest global social photography event in the history of photography itself. It takes place on the same day around the world where photographers of all walks of life and skill levels gather together, usually in downtown areas to socialize, learn new tips from each other, and explore their corner of the world through photography.
