Mike, would love to win a chance to join one of your workshops
part three in my little sereis about the CM Workshop (part one is here, and part two here), we worked on both seeing and using existing light, and also manipulating light
I have found Mike Moats Macro Boot Camps packed with basic non-technical points on improving one’s macro imaging. It wouldn’t hurt to take another boot camp to build upon any base one has.
Love Mike, would like to attend a boot camp!
Mike’s Boot Camp sounds like fun. Does he plan on adding any in the Pacific Northwest?
I really enjoy getting your newsletters, great job always carrying new items. I’m enjoy stopping in your store when I’m in Louisville, glad you are not to far from Evansville. Pick my name for the Macro Boot Camp, I’ve been looking for a good excuse to come to Louisville. Thanks, John
