Hi Crew,

Anybody out there have any experience on a cruise-ship photo teaching / 
lectures or involvement of any kind and thoughts about it? Nothing to do 
with the ship crew members who happysnap the guests. This would be strictly 
an "onboard photo school for guests who sign on for it." With a limited 
number of paying folks to attend?

WHY?
 Well I've been offered if I would like to be the lead speaker / teacher / 
photo Guru on a cruise-ship? In other words a floating photo classroom! :-) 
Interesting sounding? However what pitfalls? Anyone?

However having never been on a cruise-ship to anywhere, other than around 
the huge Vancouver Harbour and Howe Sound for a day. This is something like 
sail out of Vancouver to Alaska and back. I thought maybe there are some 
words of wisdom out there for guidance? Whether I should take these week 
long lecture happy snapping trips on or not? Certainly in the lap of a 
luxury cruise ship? Get paid and fed with other amenities!

Any suggestions, words of wisdom, whatever. All and everything good, bad & 
ugly? Please have ago. Thank you.

Cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
