"I gained a new, better way of evaluating the composition of an image in terms of the impact on the viewer. Michael was able to dramatically demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of each image.

...The value of Michael's suggestions and comments was tremendous...Michael was sensitive and appropriate in his critiquing and his critiques were always directed to produce a positive result".

For beginners thru advanced.

Santiago fires above Lake Mission Viejo in Orange County.
Incredible photo by Bob Liewer .

October 2007 So. California fires.

We had a close call, both at our home in Del Mar and our gallery in Encinitas, but the good Lord spared so much due to the Santa Ana winds (40-45 mph winds with gusts up to 75-80) not roaring thru as predicted on Tuesday. 0ver 600,000 folks were evacuated, including us.
