maybe it is just the cold now here in new york...maybe it is my general love for the Caribbean....maybe it is....well, maybe....anyway i want to go south....like the Dominican Republic, like Cabarete ....i have never been, but everyone tells me it is culture weather things to do terrific....
marie and michael and i want to see if anyone is interested in joining us for a workshop in the DR in april...probably mid-april...we will limit this class to 10 students....portfolio review required....love of the Caribbean required...great work required...
despite the tranquil nature of blue water and palm trees and a cold bottle of cerveza Presidente, this workshop will be just as challenging as all of my workshops.....the mandate for everyone to produce right out to their limit will be the order of the day...my job is to figure you out, study your work carefully, and help you get to your "next level"....we will certainly have fun doing this, but we will not be on vacation...well, maybe at the end we can throw the frisbee or something!!
please drop marie arago a note if you are at all interested....mariearago@mac.com
just look at this as "spring break"....but, with a real mission
does anyone here want to join me in Rajasthan in late january??
we now have seven students enrolled for this advanced workshop, january 19-27, 2008 in this most colorful part of India...we can take three more students (portfolio review required)...please log on to tpw.it for details....this will be my first workshop in India and i am totally psyched to shoot along with my students.... my "support team" is my absolute most favorite crew from the Tuscany Photographic Workshops with whom i have worked for ten years (see the archive for my story last february on carlo roberti and the work from my talented students from TPW )...
this is bound to be a good one ....i have only been to India once , but did not have much chance to shoot on that trip ....so , i will be learning India right along with my students....small class, intense, great material.....the hard part will be in "overcoming" all of the great imagery we have heretofore seen in India...cliches abound in this most photogenic country.....that will be the challenge for all of us, but let's give it a go...
