Thank You!

I want to thank all of you for coming out to my presentation on "The Magic of Churchill" & the polar bears at the Noyes Museum. If anyone has any additional questions on the polar bears or their environment, please don't hesitate to send me an email. If I don't know the answer, I will certainly find out for you! I hope I have accomplished my goal in taking you to the north with me and sharing in my passion of the wildlife that exists there.

Food for thought...If we all would lower our thermostats by just 2 degrees, we would lessen our carbon footprint on our earth and help to save the polar bears by doing so.

Thanks again!

Much Peace, Love & Happiness!

Sitting still won't bring new ideas in; experimenting and trying new things will jog your creativity. Practice, practice, practice. Creativity is like a muscle that you need to flex regularly. In much the same way that our bodies get out of shape without using our muscles, as a photographer our cognitive and visual capabilities decrease if we try new things and if we don't shoot images almost every day. As a professional photographer Seth has the luxury of being able to carry a camera every day and thus always tweaking his skills but many folks don't have this luxury and if they haven't shot pictures in a while they feel visually about the same as not exercising. Becoming a better photographer is really about training yourself to make your minds eye more creative. It's about how to look for, see, and create better images. While some of this is intuitive other parts of this take training. Rather than just taking pictures this seminar will help refine your creative vision and help you create more effective and compelling images bringing your creativity to a new level.
