Hereford Photography Festival launched last weekend and three exhibitions are currently under way.

On show at Herefordshire College of Art and Design is work by RCA graduate Kwayie Dwumah Kuffour.

His exhibition, Oxfam Country, includes images of modern architecture in Ghana built by Ghanaians who have been working in Western countries.

Also showing at the college is Scene Around; striking images taken by teenagers perceived as trouble makers in the Welsh town of Blaenavon - a project led by James Hanna and Toril Brancher.

Work from the Hereford Young Photographers' competition is also on show - this year including two categories (16-19 and 11-16 years old).

Huts by Jack Park (age 15) and Back Guard, Guatamala, by Simon Tupper (age 18) were competition winners.

The festival's other shows are at Hereford Courtyard until October 29 and include Elaine Constantine's tea dance collection and Simon Norfolk's Welcome to the Hotel Africa collection.

The fringe exhibition at Hereford's Left Bank Gwynne Warehouse closes tonight (Thursday) at 7pm.
