used to run photographic workshops in the Blue Mountains,
however when we hit the road I had to shut them down,
so, until I can teach at a workshop again, here's
a few tutorials.
These
are short anecdotes, each with a snippet of information
about how a photo was taken, why a particular lens
was chosen, a particular technique was used, etc.
