The workshops with Nikos are a pleasure. I really appreciate the structure which gives me freedom to structure my day and ample feedback and learning in the evenings. Nikos’ feedback is a wonderful combination of straight shooting and kindness. I learned a lot and will certainly attend again.

Nikos always selects places for his workshops where freedom is breathed and Cuba is a great place to take photos. The group was composed of fantastic people with talent for photography. Some of them really impressed me. Nikos’ comments and advice about everybody’s pictures were, as always, superb.

(…) For me personally, it was a very strong photographic experience. Upon my return to Cyprus, I have caught myself turning away from previous photographic preferences and looking for something different, with more depth(…)

Because I challenged myself to meet people with the camera, I felt that photography is not such a solitary act. I agree with you that this connection is something beautiful about photography, as it is beautiful about dance.
I also approached color differently. Before it was something that was there, naturally, as part of the reality. I became more sensitive to it, even when I wasn’t shooting, and I also became more conscious of it as one more element to consider in composition.
One of the most important things for me during the workshop was to hear your comments about the images, ours and yours. What caught your eye and why. What makes a photograph a good one. I realized that photography is possible to be read. This is something that I would like to continue to practice, so I can trust my judgment about my own photography.
Spending so many hours dedicated just to photography made me realize how time is important to achieve a good work, even as an amateur photographer.Since I started photographing, I feel it is an important part of my life. Maybe one day I’ll find a way to take it to another dimension.
