7-15 W: VSP Workshop Wild Horses & Lavender. Rick Samon - Provance, France. The Provence Workshop will centre around the beautiful region of Southern France and will offer a wide variety of different locations and photographic opportunities. Provence's unique appeal combines the charm and beauty of ancient towns and villages with a landscape famously decorated with it's fields of lavender. The workshop runs during July so as to coincide with important dates and moments in the Provence calendar. In July, Provence's many fields of lavender blossom before being harvested, and we take full advantage of this by visiting and photographing some of the more beautiful fields and villages. For the latter part of the workshop we transfer a little further south to the coastal area of Camargue. The Camargue is an area that in many ways seems more like Argentina or Spain. Famous for it's wild white horses that roam the area, it's bulls, flamingoes and other wildlife, the area is a haven for any lover of the wild. We wanted our workshop also to coincide with the Camargue Horse Festival, a time when the towns are full of shows or horsemanship, white horses running through the streets and flamenco dancing until the early hours. This trip combines the very best that Provence has to offer as well as a very wide variety of photographic opportunities. Whether your passion is photographing people, architecture, wildlife, events or landscape, this workshop has something for you. http://www.vspworkshops.com/workshops/Wild+Horses+&+Lavender/61

8 - W: INternational Expeditions- Rick Sammon - Africa. Seeing the great migration of wildebeest, zebras and gazelles across the African plains is a dream of just about any wildlife enthusiast. In one single glance, at the right place at the right time, you can see thousands of animals making their way across the Mara River or through the grasslands. On our Migration Safari we’ve scheduled four full days in Kenya’s Masai Mara Reserve, which puts us in prime position, with the greatest chance of seeing the great herds. Of course, there are no absolute guarantees, since migratory patterns differ somewhat each year, but our chances are just outstanding.Part of the fun is the excitement of discovery. Maybe we’ll watch a cheetah pursue a gazelle at 70 miles an hour. We may well see lions hunting. Whatever we do, we’ll have a glimpse of our world as it existed a million years ago. You’ll travel in go-anywhere four-wheel drive vehicles with roof hatches and window seats for everyone, and stay in some of Kenya’s finest tented camps. And as with all International Expeditions journeys, you will be accompanied by the finest guides, who are thoroughly knowledgeable about this region. http://www.ietravel.com/itindisplay.asp?itinid=1055&ieid=628773
