PhotoCampLeeds {2008} builds on the separate successes the Leeds Flickr Group ([http://www.flickr.com/groups/leeds]) and BarCampLeeds {2007} to deliver the UK's first photographic-focussed BarCamp event.
It is based on the 'BarCamp'; an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from attendees.
