You may ask why I teach workshops, I would say because I love to! \u00a0You may ask if people come to be inspired and learn from me? \u00a0I would say they may, but in the end I get inspired and learn from them!!! \u00a0I’ve been saying for a long time that great photographers are far more numerous today than ever before. \u00a0I can’t tell you exactly why, but I suspect that more people are interested in photography at a serious level today, that more opportunities to learn are present today than ever before, \u00a0and that digital photography has made the learning process easier and a lot more fun. \u00a0What ever the reason, when I teach a workshop and look at the results from my students, (more friends, and pals than students!!), I see wonderful things that, in fact, \u00a0inspire me. \u00a0This will be the first of a several part attempt to share work that was done on the recent (October), New England event. \u00a0As I look at these images they bring back great memories of having a wonderful time with terrific people, who obviously made the most of the opportunity!!!!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Before I let you feast your eyes on their wonderful work let me praise my Heavenly Father for giving me such a wonderful life, filled with rich experiences, in the company of such precious brothers and sisters……<\/p>\n

A photograph is the poetry of the soul. \u00a0The unspoken vision of an artists view of his or her world. \u00a0These photographers share a glimpse of their vision with us, and we are richer for it! \u00a0Stay tune, more to come!<\/p>\n
