$38 for 1 Day Travel Photography Workshop at Knowledge Bowl School of Photography (Worth $200)
I just attended it last Sunday and would like to express my views on this workshop conducted by Steven Yee.
I am utterly disappointed with it and felt cheated when i left the workshop.

Firstly, it was conducted in a room on the roof of Forture Centre with 50 -70 participants. It should be called
a seminar not a workshop with so many participants. A workshop should be around 10-20 people to
maximize learning experience.
The Groupon deal stated 1 hour theory, 3 hours outdoor practical and 1 hour indoor review. The main reason for
signing up is because of the 1 hour photo review after the outdoor shoot. That is where we learn the most from photo critic.
But instead Steven just show off his photo enhancement skills using ACDSee software in that hour.
There was not coaching from Steven during the outdoor practical, he just show a few photos and ask all the participants
to go around the building for hunt for the location and take the same shots. This is purely a photo hunt and there is no theme to it.
What is to learn from this outdoor practical?
This is definitely a mismatch in the deal and poor organising of the workshop by Steven.
Probably this is the first and last time for me to attend Knowledge Bowl School of Photography.
