Contemplative Photography Workshop - The Essence of Seeing (Sept 30 - Oct 1, 2023)
Register: https://www.henryfernando.com/workshops
Join us for an invigorating weekend of photography alongside fellow enthusiasts who share your passion. Immerse yourself in an environment where creativity knows no bounds and where you can recharge your energy while honing your photographic skills.
Contemplative photography encourages a heightened awareness of the world that surrounds us, enabling us to perceive not just the grand and striking moments, but also the subtle, ordinary, and everyday elements that often escape our attention as potential subjects for photography. This transformative workshop is thoughtfully designed to accommodate photographers of all skill levels. For beginners, it's an opportunity to discover the art of self-expression through photography, even without an extensive knowledge of the craft. For seasoned photographers, it offers a refreshing perspective on the art of image creation.

I had a busy and productive three-month summer hiatus from FB! I spent a lot of time with family and friends and, surprisingly, managed to come close to finishing my third eBook titled "The Artful Gaze: Awakening the Creative Spirit through Contemplative Photography." It's nearly ready to share with you all, so stay tuned
I hope everyone had a good summer.

Contemplative Photography: The Essence of Seeing
I'm excited to announce that we're back into doing an in-person Contemplative Photography workshop!
When: June 4 & 5, 2022
Where: The Arts Court in Ottawa
The contemplative approach to photography trains you to see not only the spectacular and obvious but the small, ordinary everyday things that you might not notice or think of as worthy to photograph. In our search for making grand images and for the praise from viewers, we often miss the obvious . . . without even realizing it.
Come spend a weekend recharging your batteries and learning a new approach to photography.
