FOLLOW UP:
 
All workshops will have a follow-up session that is included in the workshop fees. These will be on a weekend to be arranged.  The location will be here. If there is enough interest I can organize possibly some future gallery and studio visits to other photographers. There will be a supplementary charge for this, but no charge for the follow-up sessions. 
The rationale behind these follow up sessions is to stimulate further projects that you might have been working on and to create a community that can encourage dialogue amongst yourselves and inspire each other.
