SUMMARY:Photo Tour - India (Rajasthan & Varanasi) with Paul Sansome
DESCRIPTION:Rajasthan is the most colourful Indian State;  and we visit the majestic Taj Mahal\, Amber Fort and Varanasi\, the oldest city in the world. \nPaul aims to provide people with memorable experiences\, good photo opportunities and a great holiday. \nPaul says\, “the emphasis of this trip is photography; I believe that the best photo opportunities are found away from the main tourist sites. \nFor the full itinerary and prices please email: –  roy@myphotoclub.co.uk \nWhilst the tour includes visits to two great buildings\, the incomparable Taj Mahal and the grand Amber Fort\, there is a greater emphasis on the bustling street life of towns like Bundi and Karauli. We complete our trip by going to the unique and extraordinary Varanasi\, a place that cannot be understood without visiting it.” \nTo sumnmarise: – \nWe start our tour in Jaipur\, with an introduction meeting and an initial session of tuition. \nOur first full day will begin with a visit to one of India’s top visitor attractions – The Amber Fort. \nOnto Bundi where much time will be spent in the back streets and the market\, we will also visit some step wells\, or Baoris. \nNext\, Ranthambore National Park\, famous for its Bengal Tigers\, where we have two jeep safari drives. We hope for successful sightings of those majestic animals\, but there are other wildlife and landscape interest in the Park. \nOur next destination is Karauli where we stay in a palace and enjoy fantastic street photography\, as well as some buildings of historic note.  \nWe couldn’t visit this part of India without…. The Taj Mahal ! – One of the Seven Wonders Of The World. Photo visits at dawn and dusk from both within the grounds and across the Yamuna River from the Mehtab Bagh gardens. \nWe had to include an Indian Train experience – our 7-hour express leaves at 06.00 for the amazing city of Varanasi… Paul says\, “I have always enjoyed daytime train journeys in India\, mainly to meet people through the train\, plus the chaotic activity on some of the main stations. Varanasi is both the oldest city in the world and the most important religious site in India. Set on the River Ganges\, it holds a special place for Hindus as dying in Varanasi may allow people to reach Nirvana. As one of the world’s most unique places it provides an unforgettable experience and photography opportunity\, especially along the ghats\, the huge banks of steps along the river. \nWe end the trip in Delhi\, which has some sites that are well worth visiting but we may have limited time\, fitting in with our flights. Paul says “All I can say is that we will try to find something interesting to do with any time available to us.” \nPaul Sansome is one of the UK’s most successful fine art photographers\, selling photography to hang on people’s walls since becoming a professional in 2003. Paul has been Highly Commended in the prestigious Wildlife Photographer of the Year\, has many times featured in Landscape Photographer of the Year and in 2017  won the first of several major awards in the Travel Photographer of the Year competition. For the past 20 years\, Paul has been leading photography holidays each year to countries that include Italy\, Morocco\, Iceland\, Myanmar\, Vietnam and India. \nPaul is always available and the guidance given when alongside someone taking the photographs is probably the most instructive. As well as being attractive to the photographer\, the itinerary will also appeal to people wishing to experience a more in-depth view of the Indian way of life. The Tours attract people with all levels of photography experience.

SUMMARY:John Miskelly - Finding Your Vision
DESCRIPTION:Clarify your own photographic vision; move away from imitation and toward work that reflects your personal instincts and aesthetic choices. \n(As well as access to the live event\, you will automatically receive a link to the recording\, valid for 28 days) \nIn this new presentation\, John reflects on his past work\, from early travel photography through landscape and long exposure\, to more recent abstract images that often combine photography with other media. \nUsing his own development as a framework\, he explores how a photographer’s vision evolves over time\, through curiosity\, experimentation\, and reflection. \nJohn  focuses on the creative process\, examining how ‘exploration’ and ‘play’ can help us in our creative growth. \nDevelop your personal style by experimenting with media and techniques and learn to trust your intuition over overthinking. \nSee the world around you in a unique way\, that comes from your inner self\, which will guide you to create work that builds confidence in your own creative choices. \nJohn Miskelly : After an early photographic career at the BBC\, John is now a professional landscape photographer and teacher.
