A PHOTOGRAPHIC exhibition has proved so popular with visitors that organisers have extended it.

People and Places shows life in Bishop Auckland through the eyes of people who live there.

Residents of all ages joined professional photographer Louise Taylor for the project, and four of the best images will eventually be made into postcards, which will be distributed throughout the area.

The work, which has been supported by Wear Valley Arts and Northern Arts, will be on display in The Discovery Centre, Bishop Auckland, until Saturday, December 21.

Opening hours for the centre are Thursday, Friday and Saturday, from 11am to 4pm. Admission is free.
