Photographic Workshop in the Mississippi Delta

Magdalena Sole, juried into SlowE last year, is offering an incredible 7-day photography workshop that is
...about using the camera in a spontaneous way and learning how to get close to your subjects. It is a workshop that will emphasize the development of a unique, personal way of seeing and the development of an intuitive way of editing your photographs.  We will also discuss with participants over the week how to take their work to the next level. It’s a workshop open to amateurs and professionals alike.
This workshop will take place at the Seven Chimneys Farm near Clarksdale, MS, from October 17 - 24, 2012.  The workshop fee is $1,800 ($1,500 if you sign up by August 15), and does not include travel, accommodation, or meal expenses.  Please note that there are 2 tuition-scholarships available for people who currently reside in the Mississippi Delta. Please send your application to the above address with resume, ten photographs, and reasons for taking the workshop.
