[Scully & Osterman]

...Two eight-hour days in a facility with top-flight experts doing the teaching, every imaginable (to me, anyway) kind of photochemistry available, all the necessary equipment...and access to original prints by the greatest photographers in history.

...Taking a well-designed workshop of any kind can do great things for your own photography. ....That the workshops are so affordably priced is icing on the cake. In fact, if there's a bigger bargain in the world of photography, I'd very much like to know what it is.
