Re: [silk] Bangalore silk meet up
Thanks! I'm planning to improve my skills and to that end, I am pitching the idea of taking photography classes to Gireesh GV who is actually coming to do a photoshoot of me for an article for Forbes India. If there are photography enthusiasts, they are welcome to come to my place (mail me offlist for address) coming weekend to interact with him so he gets an idea about what somebody would expect from such classes. Note that this is going to be for people who have just begun fiddling with their SLRs for a year or two. If anybody is interested, let me know. Meant to post these links earlier. His flickr account is http://www.flickr.com/photos/gireeshgv/ And there is more work at gireeshgv.com. Kiran
