Focus on Nature Iceland Workshop

April 29, 2009 by Mike Wong • Comments Off

Einar Erlendsson who runs the Focus on Nature Workshops in Iceland recently posted an interview with Vincent Versace on his teaching style and what he's looking forward to the most in the next workshop that they do together. There are two photographs posted along with the interview that are, in my humble opinion, amazing. The contrast in the clouds and smoke are incredible. I don't think anyone does this better than Vincent. Take a look for yourself.

I recently sat down with Vincent Versace at his studio near Hollywood and he was gracious enough to share with us some of the reasons that he has used Genuine Fractals on 100% of the images that Vincent has created for over the past 10 years. But enough of me talking about this. Just watch the video below!

For his winning entry, Vladimir will receive Vincent's newest DVD called "Pixels in the Mist". He'll also get a signed 24" x 30" print from Vincent's collection of work. Congratulations again Vladimir and thank you to everybody who entered. There were a few of you who had trouble using the form at the end of the contest but if you emailed your pictures to me, they were shown to Vincent for consideration so even if you didn't see it in the gallery, it was reviewed.

Stay tuned for the next contest which will be announced next week...
