Others appeared as though this is "Paris so anything on the street works!" No it doesn't because it was Paris! Unfortunately I have fallen in to that mind set many times over the years each time I've shot, not just in Paris. But in many locations of Europe! But I'm still interested in what your response to my questions from yesterday as seen below?????? Your commments could be very helpful for others when attending a seminar at some future date? Thank you. Any comments please & thank you? cheers, ted MY QUESTIONS AGAIN: Thanks. >> Hi Leo, >> Did Peter do an in-depth critique of each of these portfolios and on each >> photo shown? At the seminar wrap session? >> >> Were there instructions / teachings from Peter before you all went out on >> your own? Did you see a large teaching portfolio of his work to enhance >> the inspiration before you started? >> Or were you told to just go out on your own and shoot "the Streets of >> Paris?" >> >> The most effective aspect of a "LEARNING" seminar with whomever you are >> attending....... is the inspiration creating vibes illustrating the >> lecturers images as a goal to attempt to shoot much better images and the >> challenge is always..... "kick his/her butt with your own material! " >> >> "YOU SHOULD ALL GO OUT THE DOOR WITH AN ATTITUDE TO SHOW NO MERCY!

YOU HAVE NO DOUBT YOU ARE GOING TO KICK ASS WITHOUT QUESTION~ >> >> And if you don't approach a teaching/learning session to out shoot >> everybody else and leave them gasping in admiration seeing your images on >> the screen! Then why bother and just carry on shooting Friday flowers! >> >> And without question, a major over all critique of a selected number of >> images from each attendee "IS A MUST!

Any year during my 16 years of teaching and critiquing. And if >> any of the CREW should be interested?
