Snakes on a Blog! (More Photos from the Australia Workshop)
So one of our photo shoots was done with a carload of snakes on an Australian beach. Sounds pretty weird, but it was all in the spirit of helping us to practice the advanced lighting skills we were learning. It felt like old times to me since I spent two of my college years living...
Photo Workshop in Australia! Did I Mention it was in AUSTRALIA!!
I recently returned from a photography workshop in Australia organized by a fellow photographer and featuring some of the coolest photographer/instructors around. I hope you will pardon some off-the-beaten-path photos from me, but here are a few samples. //

Day 5…. Last day in Prague. Went to see the 2007 World Press Photo show. The winning photo is a strong picture but has been somewhat controversial. Further info here: www.worldpressphoto.org We leave on an early morning train to Budapest. I will miss the beautiful city and the extremely friendly people. I will not miss...
