I get mildly amused when someone sees me walking around with my camera and 70-200/2.8 lens, and says something like, "Gee, I bet you can really see a long way with that big lens", or similar words to imply that telephoto lenses are only useful to magnify distant subjects.  Non photographers can be forgiven this lack of understanding, but I often hear it in my workshops as well.

To clear up this misconception, I have added a new article, Creative Lens Use

Bryan Peterson, photographer, renowned photography instructor and best selling author of “Understanding Exposure” and “Learning to See Creatively” is coming to Vancouver on February 10th next year.

Bryan will present an all day multimedia workshop designed to ignite your creativity.  More detailed information on Bryan’s Workshop here.

I have a long association with Bryan going back almost 15 years  and during that time I have had the pleasure of attending a number of his workshops as well as assisting him on one or two more.  Bryan’s boundless energy, infectious enthusiasm, and endless creativity guarantee you will leave the theatre overflowing with new ideas and renewed passion for your own image making!

This is Bryan’s first visit to Vancouver, and only his second to the lower mainland in 14 years.  Don’t miss this not soon to be repeated chance to spend a day with one of the most dynamic and creative photography instructors in the world today!
