It is a well known photographic institute offering a masters in photography course as well as shorter programs. See www.speos.fr Like any private learning institution the courses are not cheap, but I was amased by the variety of students attending.. Russian, Italian, US, Japanese, french of course, Indian, Israel, Arabic, about a dozen nationalities. The students presented their end of year portfolios, all laid out for perusal. And that was the second surprise as the quality of their work in general was excellent. I guess with a full tme full year course you'd expect them to learn something but the standard was truly exceptional. I picked up a few visit cards from the students I liked.. the sites are mentioned below.
