Thanks a lot Gary!! I am really looking forward to it. But I think if we could have a rough idea about the cost involved (fees, place of the workshop, etc.) it would be easier for us to plan ahead.
I shall spread the word to my friends.
Regards

Hey Gary,
Thanks a gazillion for your efforts and help. I have mailed her. I am sure we will get 20. Please do tell me of the fees, just to get a rough idea, and spread word for people to rope in. I know this is out of the way from your side. Thanks a lot.

Comment by Gary Knight on November 8, 2008 at 1:54pm - Guys, I am thinking of doing a workshop in India for Indian photographers (not overseas Indian photographers or foreigners) sometime in February. I will try to keep the costs down so that it works in the domestic economy. This means that anyone attending will have to take care of all their own logistics and expenses unlike my other workshops where everything is included. There will still be a fee but we will try to keep it as low as we can - obviously we will have expenses that we need to cover and we also have a living to make like everyone else. If you are interested please contact Fiona at fionaeturner@gmail.com. If we can get about 20 people I will try to persuade Philip Blenkinsop from Noor to join me as well. All bests, Gary
