Hi all,

For anyone who is going to Arles on 4-9 July, or is thinking about going and might want some encouragement to go, there is a photo workshop on those dates with some places still available.

The instructor is Andrew Squires (http://www.photography-provence.com/), a very friendly, helpful, insightful photographer and teacher. In addition to his main site, he also has another site (http://web.me.com/photovision1/iWeb/Site/Welcome.html) based on previous years of the workshop at Arles.

The workshop is focused not on technique, but on looking at other photographer's work, thinking about it, talking about it, learning from it, and seeing above all. We have daily discussions of what we saw each day and evening, what it inspired, and so on.

And of course this is the south of France, so there are good meals in plenty, good weather, and good times!

If you'd like more information, please drop me a line and I'll try to answer any questions you might have, and of course I'm delighted to refer you to Andrew via e-mail.

From the looks of the site, this is not an LF workshop, he seems to be a digi-shooter

Yeah, that's why I said it was not based on technique, but on looking at other people's work.

If this truly doesn't belong here, I'll let the moderators tell me to remove it.

Your work is sufficient for this meeting! I really enjoyed visited your website and find your images to be esthetically and technically impressive.

Kudos,

Asher

It will be the opening week of "les recontres d'arles" probably the most important and certainly biggest photo festival in Europe.
See http://www.rencontres-arles.com/A11/C.aspx?VP3=CMS3&VF=ARL_2_VForm&LANGSWI=1&LANG=English
I'll certainly be there all week -there is a one day workshop with paolo roversi on the Wednesday.

"les rencontres d'Arles" really looks and sounds Slovakian doesn't it?:cool:
