Featuring the faces and stunning landscapes of Co Down’s Strangford Lough, this impressive collection has managed to capture the many moods and seasons of the lough, and features dramatic portraits of local people, who bring an earthy, yet ‘sea-salt reality’ to this unique photo exhibition.

Environmental photojournalist Bernie Brown, has in one room, captured a real sense of Strangford Lough, its historical, geographical, environmental, leisure and spiritual aspects which, when viewed alongside each other, remind us how special this inlet of sea water on our Co Down coastline actually is.

‘The Life of the Lough’ a photographic exhibition by Bernie Brown in Lough Neagh’s Discovery Centre runs until April 27.
