We are excited to have
the dynamic duo of Margo Taussig Pinkerton and Arnold “Arnie” Zann returning to
Through This Lens for another weekend photo workshop. Longtime
professional photographers who enjoyed successful careers, they retired from
commercial work and are now teaching photo workshops full time.
We presented a solo
exhibition of theirs last winter called The Ying and Yang of the Outer Banks
that received a very complimentary, full-page review by Blue Greenberg, local
art critic, at http://www.heraldsun.com/lifestyles/lifestylescolumnists/greenberg/x1733187702/Two-ways-of-looking-at-the-Outer-Banks
I attended a good portion
of Margo and Arnie’s workshop last year and was really impressed. As I
wrote in one of my blogs:
Photographers can be a
hearty lot - Snow, freezing roads, slush, ice-cold rain - all pretty unpleasant
stuff, but for the two workshops held at Through This Lens presented by Margo
Taussig Pinkerton and Arnold Zann AKA Barefoot Contessa Photo Adventures - or
Margo and Arnie as they are less formally known - the weather was barely a hindrance
… In fact, Sunday, the students spent the morning at Duke Gardens shooting the
frosty remnants of the snow and ice. After a couple of hours with their
cameras, they returned to the gallery to edit and share their work during a
compassionate but honest critique.
These were serious photo
workshops and serious students. The presentations and activities were very well
organized. The students came from as far away as Cincinnati. I've spent the
past 20 years teaching various computer applications, yet I gained a lot from
sitting in, between customers and other gallery duties. If you were not able to
attend, please take a look at Margo and Arnie's web site and consider one of
their workshops. You'll work hard, and be happy that you did.
So please join us for
this fun weekend. For more information, go to http://www.BCphotoadventures.com/ThroughThisLensPhotoWorkshop.php.
