Fear of straying off the beaten path. Nikon D3, 24-70/2.8
I’m in the early planning stages of a small (3-5 participant) private workshop in Tokyo this October (2012). Dates aren’t fixed yet, that’ll depend on the participants’ schedules. Details as follows:
- 3 days, based in Tokyo (but I’m not ruling out quick side trips to appreciate the autumn foliage)
- Two days of shooting – covering whatever specific topics the participants would like to learn, but I have some ideas (travel, landscape, photojournalism and making sequences of images into stories, learning composition fundamentals with compacts, night photography etc.)
- One day of editing/ selecting images and photoshop post-processing
Depending on the number of participants, costs will range from US$1,300 to US$2,200; this is for tuition only and assumes you live in Tokyo, or can easily get there. Would be ideal for Asian residents, as it’s just a short commute.
Please drop me an email or leave a comment below if you’re interested.
Thanks! MT





Hi Ming, love your posts & portfolio. Are there any open spots left for your Tokyo workshop in October? And if so, have you set on your actual dates yet? By the way, I am a strictly M9 shooter, so will that make me the odd ball among all the DSLRs shooters you will be teaching? Thanks in advance for your feedback. At this point, I am not sure yet if I can make it there, as I am located in Taipei, and would need to make travel arrangements–permitting that my wife will let me go
Hi Philip, thanks for the compliments and interest in the Tokyo workshop. I’m in the process of collecting deposits now; unfortunately there aren’t any spots left, but would you like me to let you know if there’s a cancellation? It should be confirmed in the next week or so. Dates are 12-14 October inclusive. There are actually a couple of M shooters on the trip, a couple of DSLR shooters, and I’ll be using the OM-Ds, so it’s a good mix. After all, you should use whatever tool works best for you.
Hello Ming, as a recent follower of your blog, I would be interested in any future workshops you will have, especially if in Tokyo. Thanks. Harv
Thanks Harvey – I’ve got one spot left for this October (12-14th) if you’re interested?
