Greetings all,
Well, we're not that far away from our workshop and Per is working hard to put together a program that will maximize the benefits of the experience.
So, due to the level of interest we now have two sessions for this workshop. The first is from Sept. 15 - 17th and the second session will run from the 18 - 20th. Would you kindly let me know which session you'd like to attend. As it is at the moment... we have approximately 30 attendees and our goal is to have 15 per session. I'm hoping there will be some flexibility in scheduling here.
I am in the midst of scouting out locations for us to shoot at. If there are any local attendees that have ideas as to the best locations... please let me know asap. We already have a bunch of places in mind but we're always open to more.
For those of you who would like to join us for dinner on the evening of September 17th... please let me know that you will be attending. As soon as I'm apprised of the numbers... I will be contacting the owner of this great little French bistro to see if they can put together a fixed price menu. Alternatively, we can also pick ala carte from their wonderful menu. They've been voted the best bistro in Vancouver for the last number of years and is highly regarded. Here is their website:

We will be meeting at a small breakfast cafe at 7:00 AM each morning of the workshop. I'm still working on this so I'll let you all know the exact address as soon as I confirm with them that it's okay with them. I'm sure they'll be expecting us to imbibe in breakfast each morning... their pancakes are absolutely terrific. So, I'm hoping we'll be able to support them on this end of things.
Lastly, due to the legal formalities that we all have to live with these days... I'm attaching a Waiver of Liability Form for your signature. PLEASE READ IT THROUGH COMPLETELY. If there are any questions, please, do not hesitate to contact either myself or Per directly. We will require this form to be completed prior to accepting your participation in the workshop. Please remember that this is a workshop that Per and I are putting together in the interest of helping people learn about Large Format photography and photography in general.
I would very much appreciate your confirming that you've received this email. Please respond by sending me your name and address along with a telephone number.
As soon as I have a full response from you, I'll be disseminating everyone's names and email addresses to all the other attendees. Then, if there are some of you that live close to one another and want to tee up transportation etc... you're more than welcome to do so.
Remember... some areas that we'll be going to will require that you bring mosquito/bug repellant. As well, please bring proper attire so that you won't be cold. Remember that this will be mid-September and the weather (although "usually" nice) can be on the cooler side.
I'm looking forward to meeting all of you folks and think this will be a great event.
Cheers
Henry
