Inspiration
Here you’ll find some films and photographs to inspire you to think of your own imaginative ways to explore your Fantastic Place. Take a look….
-
Download a set of six images of the sky. The fluffy clouds up in the sky are called cumulus clouds, and they usually look stable enough to walk on. Just imagine what’s happening up there on top of the clouds…
-
Download a set of seven images from Kingley Vale, a place where many yew trees have grown for hundreds of years. Kingley Vale looks like it sprang straight out of a fantasy world, and each time you look, you’ll see something new.
-
Download a set of nine images of pebbles and water on the coastline. You never know what you will find at the beach, and everything comes in its own size and shape. The beach looks extra special during sunrise, which is when these pictures were taken.
-
When we look up at the clouds we don’t realise that they’re changing shape all the time. Watch and listen to this video as we see what happens when the clouds are sped up. We also get to see a few of the creatures that live up in the clouds.
-
Watch as the full moon creates sparkling light and reflects off the surface of the water and plant leaves. There’s always something to see at night time and they usually look out of this world.
-
Watch and listen to this video as we move from the pebbles, the mud and seaweed all the way to the rushing water at the edge of the sea. Look out for footprints from the birds which make the beach their home.
-
Watch and listen to this video exploring the ancient trees at Kingley Vale. Most of this video was captured from a “worms eye view”, so you can see really up close all the different shapes and patterns that we don’t usually see from a distance. You might even spot a few animal shapes in the bark too.

Download a set of five images of trees taken at dusk while walking. Because the sun was going down, the camera had to stay on really long to capture the pictures, which made them blurry. We think they look a bit like oil paintings. Download these and you can also try making your own interesting blurry pictures.
