Workshops in North America '08

June 2008 was a trip to heaven.
Conducting 3 workshops in 3 beautiful cities of North America,
I met beautiful and talented people along the way. I am very pleased with the output
and I consider myself very lucky to have been given such an opportunity to share my passion.
Thanks a lot to everyone who made all the 3 workshops a success! You know who you are!

Manny, Thank you for the opportunity to watch you work and to work with you. You have a real gift in capturing people. It is if you saw right through them and caught their essence. Also you have an amazing talent in teaching others. Again thanks for sharing your photography tips and post processing. I learned so much. I love the way you described your style, Manuel. Keep up the amazing work. Everyone was inspired and ignited in California. It was well worth it. Come to Nashville, TN next time. Here is the link to my photos. Can you please critique since I didn't give you mine. http://www.pbase.com/sadira/models Regards, Sadira (Salvo) Ebert

Manny! Thank you for having the Quebec workshop and thanks to everyone involved with it. Your vision, philosophy, and love for photography is clearly evident and contagious. I was glad to meet you, learn from you, and be inspired by you and the others. There was great interaction and what was taught in the class portion of the workshop enhanced our perspective and photos, helping to bring out our own style. It was a beneficial experience and it encourages us to learn and grow all the more with passion as a photographer.

It was a great pleasure to finally meet you and see how you do what you do. So many beautiful images from the participants !!! Vote! Please keep them coming. I am already looking forward to next year in LA again or perhaps San Francisco?

David Gaar		02-Jul-2008 05:56
Manny, Another round of thanks for the recent LA workshop. I think that all of us who attended are coming out of that weekend so very enriched and inspired by having that time with you. For me, it was really a master course in composition within the frame and in decerning how to seek that pure natural light that make all of your images so memorable. For anyone considering any of Manny's future workshops all I can say is - Do Not Hesitate - you will be so very rewarded by the experiance...

Guest		02-Jul-2008 00:17
Thanks again Manny. It was a pleasure meeting you. Your photography is very inspiring :)

Denis Vincelette		01-Jul-2008 23:28
Ah those canadians ... :-) They are good photographers :_)) It is a joke ... true but a joke ! Congratulations to all , great compositions, great post-process, great work you did !

Guest		01-Jul-2008 22:03
