You aren't just driven around to pretty sites, which you could do on your own, you are taught how to see, think and create, like a master, from a master. That way, when you get to pretty places on your own, you'll be able to make exciting, award winning art with the concepts you've now practiced and learned. Three days of intense learning with Michael- only $995. (A deposit of $195 will hold your space, bal. due two weeks prior). This is a BONUS CLASS: Everyone that takes all three days receive an approx. 16x20" $2,250 Seewald original, of choice, for doing so! *** *** *** "..I thought he did a great job of explaining everything. He was very patient with us and didn't make us feel bad when we didn't know or understand things.... ...I went into the class hoping to learn the manual functions of my camera, as I had never learned that. I've tried reading books and it just never "clicked". I really felt that I got it after day one, and after day three I felt completely comfortable. ...I learned a LOT about all the functions on my camera I never used and feel like that was a huge benefit. I loved that we went out and "shot" in the field so that we could really get comfortable with the new ideas and techniques we were learning. Pamela Scholten, Class of 2.25-27.'11 Intermediate photographer, Anaheim, CA *** *** *** "These two and three day Napa classes/ workshops (aka 'fun-shops') are not to be missed. Seewald classes generally fill up fast and provide great images that you will be able sell, if you are wanting to that is, or to just hang them on your walls for you and your friends to appreciate for the rest of your life." MS *** *** *** "...Was I crazy for flying all the way across the country for a Seewald workshop? Very possibly. But I would do it again. ... Was it worth the trip, an unqualified YES! " Michael Gotthelf, Massachusetts, Advanced amateur, Class of Feb. 2006 *** Who is Michael Seewald? Maybe the most awarded (as far as winning national and international competitions), artist alive. With a degree in photography, and forty years of traveling the world creating over 65 portfolios, a month per trip) he's also the most productive photographic artist alive too! [You Tube testimony from a professional photog ](https://youtu.be/T_SfUQQcsY4?feature=shared) *** Cancellation/refund policy: All classes outside San Diego county- cancellation policy as of 11.1.'11.

With less than 60 days before class: No refund nor certificate will be issued, but you will still receive a $750 Seewald original of choice (from about a dozen images) if you're paid in full on a three day. So basically it's a no loss policy. ;/) MORE INFO HERE: [http://www.seewald.com/San_diego_digital_photography_workshops_and_courses.htm](http://www.seewald.com/San_diego_digital_photography_workshops_and_courses.htm) PS This is a class where you can add 'Day 4", a Monday, for only $250 more.
