4D/3N Bali photosafari and post-processing workshop Jan 14th-17th, 2010
You may view a slide show of some photos taken during the photo-safari in July 2009 here.
Latest: SOLD OUT!
This 4D/3N workshop will be a photo-safari with a twist with a specially arranged 2 nights home-stay program (with the proviso we have a minimum of 8 participants) followed by the 3rd night stay at a luxurious hotel in Ubud. This home-stay program would allow you to mingle with the villagers and shoot their daily activities that will include the local market, school children activities and even Balinese dances together with their behind-the-scene preparations. If we do not have enough participants we will stay in a hotel in Ubud for the whole duration.
This will be a very special life’s adventure and will go beyond a photographic workshop. If you need to find new inspiration to take more profound and intimate photographs, it’s an opportunity not to be missed.
I will spend quality time with each one of you both during the post-processing sessions and on our daily photographic outings.
As in all the other workshops I teach, my ultimate goal is to help each participant to create an appealing body of work with the ability to post-process his/her photos at an advanced level. You will return home with a new commitment to your work and your creativity. This is an opportunity to make countless stunning, memorable images from storytelling, to portraits, to journalistic response to rapidly unfolding events. I will be teaching many more new techniques not found in any of my ebooks. Those who have read my ebooks and/or attended my previous photo-safari will still be able to learn new techniques that will further enhance their post-processing capabilities.
