an exclusive, intimate 5 Day Workshop:
"Perception,
Light, Gesture, and Color"
May 23rd to 27th, 2007
Vancouver Photo Workshops proudly announces
a four day workshop, "Perception,
Light, Gesture, and Color" with internationally
acclaimed photographer Jay Maisel to
be held from may 23rd to 27th, 2007. Set in beautiful
Vancouver, British Columbia, this is a once in a lifetime
opportunity to expand your visual horizons under the guidance
of one of the great masters in contemporary photography.
Take part and experience a renewed sense of energy, inspiration
and vitality in your photography.
Mr. Maisel has been leading Workshops for decades inspriring
many emerging as well as established photographers worldwide.
Mr. Maisel teaches regularly at established US institutions
such as Santa Fee Workshops, The Maine Photographic Workshops,
Andersen Ranch Arts Center Workshops as well as in New
York City. He has taught and lectured all over the United
States, Europe, Australia as well as New Zealand.
Motivated by the success of Mr. Maisel's Workshop in 2006, VPW is very proud to have the opportunity to bring Mr.
Maisel back to Vancouver for 2007.
This workshop is an unparalleled
opportunity for the Pacific Northwest photographer who
has been interested in the many high caliber photography
workshops on the east coast, but found the cost for travel
and accommodation to be prohibitive. Since the workshop
is being held at Vancouver Photo Workshops in Vancouver,
B.C. our American participants will find that the added
bonus of exchange rates will make this a real treat resulting
in excess of 14% (at time of this writing) off all your
expenses in Canada.

Workshop course decription provided by Jay Maisel
himself:
This is a challenging class.
Deceptively simple at first, with levels of complexity
that will unfold over the week.
This is a class which will fundamentally change the
way you see. It has nothing to do with technical sophistication
or complicated equipment.
This is a class about getting inspired, learning new
things, working through burnout, and getting back to the
part of photography that was fun and attracted you in
the first place: looking and seeing.
You will get assignments, which you will not have enough
time to shoot. We won’t have enough time to edit,
critique, talk, or sleep.
But you will leave with an urge to go out and shoot.
And hopefully you will say what many ex-students say (I
have no idea why), “This class changed the way I
see and/or changed my life”.
