Well it's that time again. Foto Freo: <http://www.fotofreo.com/>
The bi-annual festival of photography that runs for a month. It's workshops (Magnum are running a series of workshops at the same time as the festival), talks & exhibitions galore. I had a pleasant evening listening to Australian Magnum photographer Trent Parke, discuss his photographic journey, a look back at his roots & work that lead him to where he is now. Later one I got to meet the man as well as a couple of the international exhibitors: Viviane Dalles, French photographer currently based in Thailand: <http://www.vivianedalles.com/> Sohrab Hura: Indian documentary photographer: <http://www.worldpressphoto.org/index.php?option=com_contact&task=view&contact_id=703&Itemid=239&catids=263&bandwidth=low> It really is enlightening to sit around a table, drinking beer & and talking photography, not gear. To say I'm humbled & inspired would be an understatement. It's an exciting time to be a photographer/enthusiast in this corner of the world.
