What a profound journey! Fourteen days of photographic immersion. The journey was in finding the authenticity in one’s own vision.
We were seven students, two instructors, and one cultural advisor. Our journey took us from the city life in Athens to the traditional in Crete to picture perfect Santorini and back again. We experienced Greek hospitality from our urban dining experiences to the warmth with which our hosts in the mountains received us.
There was technical and creative instruction from teachers, development of one’s unique visual perspective and the tasting of the Greek culture. We learned most of all from each other how to express with the camera what the eye sees. As an instructor, it was a joy to witness the mutual respect and encouragement within the group. From those who started the trip with much experience to those photographing with intent for the first time, the quality of the image making was incredible.
The images posted are some of the experiences of the group as we traveled together. I am proud to have been a part of this wonderfully deep and rich experience.
