Moving Forward

I just completed teaching another workshop. This one was my first on Whidbey Island off the coast of Seattle. It was the perfect location for stretching your photographic boundaries. And, the group that I had, did just that. Like most of my classes, they  came with strong portfolios but in most cases, one dimensional. Part of…
