Gonna say - i can see nothing in that program that is going to teach you anything.
I've seen you at work - and you are your own greatest teacher! (That and a boy who loves to play with ALL the toys!  8))

But it's Joe McNally.  Which means a couple of things
1. I'd just like to meet him
2. It's very (very) unlikely he'll be able to stick to a plan.  Have you read his books?

I think you've answered the point Jonathan.

It's Joe McNally.

What other reason do you need!

I have to admit to not having read his books but i'll go and give 1 a look - always up for a good read.

Had i not booked up to have a trip over to Paris on the Airbus A380-800 next month i might have joined you  :tup:

Oh wow - got to go - no resist - no got to go...

Just thinking I don`t visit my daughter in Guildford enough and maybe I should go down weekend of 23 -25th July. Maybe pop into London on 23rd. It`s my birthday on 6th so why not get a days training as a present. Would be so cool - just reading Hot Shoe Diaries in an effort to make better use of my flashes than I do.

Damn you Jonathan for highlighting this  ;)
$149 USD that`s what £105 or so!

Looks interesting. I must admit to not having heard of him before, but his portfolio has some wonderful images. Great American marketing Razzamatazz.

I notice they have 'shooters' instead of photographers over there now. ::)

It certainly does look interesting do you pick up many tips from these events.

Oh wow! how tempting is this? I read his blog quite regularly, just have to persuade Mrs Irv it's a worthy day out for me.

I am sure that I'll learn a lot Sandy. Joe is a great photographer with many covers of National Geographic and Time, among others, to his credit. I also expect to be thoroughly entertained. Check out some of the links below.  ;)
