"Be prepared to work hard, but the rewards are phenomenal.  You will walk away knowing that you "stretched" your photographic mind beyond your wildest expectations.  You will pinch yourself each time one of the superb instructors gives you their undivided attention.  They give so much of themselves and their talents; true teachers in every sense of the word. ." - Becky Swift, Santa Barbara, CA

"Single best educational experience of my life.  My head was reeling with the possibilities which are now in front of me.  Brought photography to me in such a way that I can really begin to use it in my life." - Don Estes, Minneapolis, MN

"To get that level of honest, constructive criticism from photographers and editors of the caliber represented was unbelievably helpful.  I especially appreciated that the instructors didn't bother to stroke our egos with un-earned praise.  They told it like they saw it and hearing what they did not like in the images or what didn't work was worth an awful lot to me.  I think my editing will be much more careful, and my photography should improve as well as I consider the comments made as I compose and make new photographs. Just do it!  You are unlikely to ever have such an opportunity to learn so  much from multiple photographers/editors of this caliber, and the networking possibilties are not to be missed" - Steve MacAulay, Seattle, WA

Chance favors the prepared photographer." - Dave Stephenson, San Jose, CA

But of course, the greatest opportunities came from the case of players. The integrity, candidness and enthusiasm of all truly astounded me.

Their desire to teach, to team and to share was a true inspiration." - Christine Bouvet, Avon, CO.
