Michael A. Smith and Paula Chamlee will be conducting one of their Vision & Technique workshops in New Orleans, LA April 1 - 3 2011. This will be a perfect opportunity for those of us who live in the South to learn from two of the great living large format photographers. And early Spring is a perfect time to visit New Orleans. The weather is usually nice that time of year (i.e. not sweltering hot). The workshop is limited to 8 participants so sign up soon.

Michael photographed extensively in New Orleans in the mid-80's under the auspices of the Historic New Orleans Collection and we are working on scheduling an artist's talk with him about that work early in the week following the workshop. I, for one, can't wait.

I did notice that the link to pay the deposit is inactive for the New Orleans workshop but I simply emailed them to let them know I would participate and mailed my deposit in.
