Amsterdam and Prague workshop report – and dates for 2014!
October 20, 2013 by
The final two stops on the Making Outstanding Images workshop tour for 2013 were Amsterdam, at the end of September, and Prague, at the beginning of October. The course now lasts four days, and by all accounts, is intensive – I’m trying to make it easier, but there really is quite a bit of knowledge that has to go in 🙂 Read on to see how it went.
New video workshops: How To See Ep1, and The Compact Camera Masterclass
September 15, 2013 by
Thanks to the fantastic response to the first two workshop videos – ‘The Fundamentals’ and ‘Making Outstanding Images: Episode One’, we’ve now produced two more – ‘How To See Ep1: Kuala Lumpur‘, and The Compact Camera Masterclass.
And of course I’m putting on special pricing for the launch month – see below for trailers and details!
Coming soon, redux!
September 12, 2013 by
Two of the workshop videos we shot at the start of this month have now completed production and will be available very soon – by popular demand, “How To See, Episode 1: Kuala Lumpur”, and a after the break, a curveball: “The Compact Camera Masterclass”. Tomorrow we return to the regular business of reviews with the final instalment of the Olympus OM-D E-M1 trilogy – the 12-40/2.8. Enjoy! MT
Edit: trailers have been updated with less noisy versions.
A gentle reminder: last day for the introductory video offer…
August 31, 2013 by
Firstly, a huge thank you to everybody who’s purchased the two new workshop videos:
Ming Thein on Photography: The Fundamentals and
Making Outstanding Images, Episode One
I’m pleased to announce that we will definitely be continuing the series. Episodes two and three are in production now, along with ‘Learning to See: visualizing Kuala Lumpur’.
But, before we get that far – please note that today will be the last day for the introductory $100 offer for both videos (instead of $120) – after today, prices will return to normal. The offer ends once all the time zones clear midnight on the 1st of September. More details on the videos, including testimonials, are here.
UPDATE: It’s now 1 September everywhere, so the offer has now ended. Thank you for the support, and enjoy your videos! MT
Please note that due to special requests and PayPal/ correspondence email addresses differing, the download links are sent manually. I make every effort to send out your download link as soon as possible, but due to time differences there may be a delay of a few hours. Thanks for understanding!
One slot opened for the Prague workshop…
August 25, 2013 by
Prague – 2-5 October: one four-day seat left at a special price of $1,900 instead of $2,150! You can of course take any combination of days you wish, too.
A place has opened up due to a participant’s work commitments conflicting…if you were on the fence before, hopefully this will give you an incentive!
The syllabus will still follow the core fundamentals from the USA tour: throw everything you thought you knew about photography out the window, and start again. All you need is a camera and a couple of perspectives – one wide, one tele. It could be either end of a zoom on a compact, or it could be medium format and a couple of primes – it’s up to you. What I’ll be teaching is subject independent: make great images, any time, with any subject, any camera. Put it this way: it’s easy to spend thousands on equipment that you may use a handful of times a year, but what about the knowledge that lets you make the most of that equipment, in any situation?
The Singapore and USA workshop reports are here and here respectively.

Prague – 2-5 October: one four-day seat left at a special price of $1,900 instead of $2,150 Now taken, thanks! Inevitably, last minute schedule changes and commitments occur with participants, so I am still accepting standbys though…
