Fast Track to Photography Course in Gozo – Day 5

Last Saturday we had the (full-day) wrap-up of our photography course, and I wonder how many of us will miss going to Rabat tomorrow morning! George Saguna said on his blog what I’m sure we’re all thinking. It was a great group of all ages (well, nobody was over 60 or under 17 LOL), and I personally look forward to keeping in touch with all of them!

How funny that the venue of our last day was the Ninu Cremona School in Victoria. I was still fighting my pain demons and thus wasn’t able to take full advantage of all the weird nooks and crannies that offered such marvellous settings for a photo-shoot. Here are my best shots, but if you like you can see more – and better ones! – in the group photo album, which has now been made public (though I think you’ll have to be on facebook – but I’m not sure!).

Fast Track to Photography Course in Gozo – Day 4

I went back to work last Monday as planned and had some better days, and some worse. The heat hasn’t been helping at all – upon coming home I usually find the nearest horizontal area and collapse in a steaming heap, with nothing further from my mind than blogging about the photography course!

Well, a week ago today we met up late afternoon for a change, and the photo shoot took place at sunset. At first I was a bit miffed when I’d read about the chosen location – Dwejra. I’ve been down there so many times that I should be made a honorary something of Dwejra!! But I hadn’t known that it would be a sunset shoot much different to the ones I’d undertaken before. I loved it – except for the mosquitoes that attacked us like kamikaze bombers…

Our tutor, Kevin Casha, took photos with lighting… While I’m happy with my silhouettes, his pics make me green with envy!!
