After visiting a bunch of places today, one of the guys I was with asked me if I wanted to go drop in on a friend who was wrapping up a four day workshop focusing on digital workflow. So I decide, yeah, that might be fun. We walk in and are greeted warmly by a group of 30 some odd frazzled students on a Raw bender. So as to not interrupt further, we head to the back and I take a seat next to a nice woman frantically trying to keep up. The instructor is weaving this particularly nutty action and she gets lost, so I help her catch up and explain a few things about what she is doing. At one point after looking at some of the other participants work, I even comment to her that I really like her pictures - I mention something about them being on the street and interesting, as opposed to the other stuff I saw (i.e. of the cookie tray in the back of the room). So after the thing ends, we exchange pleasantries and say goodbye. Nice enough. When everyone has filtered out, the instructor states that it was a great class of talented people and then I find out who that woman I'd been talking to was. http://www.magnumphotos.com/c/htm/TreePf_MAG.aspx?Stat=Photographers_Portfol io <http://www.magnumphotos.com/c/htm/TreePf_MAG.aspx?Stat=Photographers_Portfo lio&E=29YL53KYN17> &E=29YL53KYN17 And I told her she was "good for going outside and shooting people". What a laugh. :: w a d e h e n i n g e r :: i n t e r a c t i o n d e s i g n :: a d o b e s y s t e m s , i n c .
