Convention “Fotografie PUR” – October 30th, 2010

This event might be interesting for those who always wanted to know more about my photography, my style and workflow. I’ll be giving an insight in the artsy-fartsy world of VT as well as presenting some “old fashioned” printing techniques.

Also there will be presentations held by other 6 photographers, covering panorama, people/portrait, wedding, product and landscape/city photography.

An “all-in-one” event, so to speak.

The event will take place October 30th, 2010 at

Luminanz GmbH Saarbrücken
Quartier Eurobahnhof
Lützelbachstr. 13
66113 Saarbrücken
Germany
