We haven't posted here for some time as we are now using our main <a href="http://www.imagesinthesun.com/photography-blogs/">blog</a> to keep you up to date with the latest in photo news, tips and knowledge. However we'd like to tell you about our photography tours and bring you some images from the latest, last month. We're featuring the work of Jacinto, a Spanish guest, who arrived with a huge desire to produce some competition entry quality photos. Our tours are exceptional in that we focus on giving access to local people, something which other photo tour providers only hint at.

Action photography is rarely covered here during the workshops but Isabel took full advantage of a Kite surfing instructor's downtime to shoot extremely well with her 70-300 during her week of photography here in Essaouira.</div>

A brilliant self-portrait from Val Lear on a <b>photography tour</b> with us in the region of Tafraoute and the Anti-Atlas in Morocco. Taken with an extreme wide angle lens during the brightest part of the day it shows some wonderful compositional sense and uses her extremely long leg to good effect:-) To join the next <b>photography tour </b>in October this year, please visit our <span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://www.imagesinthesun.com/workshops/photo-tour-people-of-morocco-photography-tour/">website link</a></span><span style="color: #e69138;">. </span>You can see the rest of Val's and other galleries <a href="http://essaouiraimages.viewbook.com/tafraoute-tour-feb-2012"><span style="color: blue;">here</span></a><span style="color: #e69138;">.</span><br />

In other news photography and cooking are proving more popular for holidays here in Essaouira especially with couples who are either both choosing to do a week's cooking course together or choosing one activity each. Prices for two people are very reasonable so take a look at the new <b>cooking holidays</b> <span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://cookingholidaysmorocco.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: blue;">website</span></a>.</span><br />

It's been a while but after a busy few months with courses here in Morocco I can finally add a post to the original Blogger platform. Nearly all the updates and current news these days can be found at <a href="http://www.imagesinthesun.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b45f06;">imagesinthesun</span></a> but it's a good time to refresh here with an offer of an upcoming <b>photography tour</b> in Morocco touring the Anti-Atlas mountain range to the east of Agadir. It's a 6 day tour with overnight single room accommodation in 2/3 star hotels and focuses on landscape photography and all types of terrain from the mountains of the Atlas near Marrakesh (includes an overnight stay here) to the desert in Morocco's south(not the dunes I might add - they're much further east). The <b>photography tour </b>is by 4x4 and begins on February 20th and ends on the 25th. February is a great time of year in the Anti-Atlas as the blossom is out and it looks quite stunning. There is just one place left to make up a group of 3 so book now. The price is £575 so not at all bad for a 5 night, 6 day tour in some fantastic scenery.

The one-day workshop here in Essaouira is divided into a morning and early evening session, the first session focusing on camera controls and technique. The evening session comprises of a tutor led tour of the Medina followed by an assessment of the photos taken and the selection for the online gallery, which is useful to have to shows friends and family back home. We also cover a little post-production work using Photoshop.

Increasingly I'm using image manipulation programs, such as Aperture and Photoshop during the week's course, to demonstrate the possibilities of controlling highlights and what can actually be recovered from an over-exposed image. Understanding what software can achieve, can inform our use of histograms on location and encourage us to expose for the highlights and let the shadows areas fall away into darkness. It's easier to "bring up' the shadows than render detail in a "blown out" areas of white. Emma Simpson's photo from last month, demonstrates what I mean. She exposed correctly for the bright central area which on her camera led to a surrounding solid black area. In post-production we brought up some of the foreground shadow detail offering more interest in the final image as seen right.</b></span></div>

Craig also took advantage of rare 'Fantasia' festival near Essaouira, not an event we've covered before on the photography holidays but once safely positioned in a good location at the front, Craig's correct choice of shutter speed and timing gave him some truly exotic images.

His 'life emerging' gallery offers an insight into the former industrial soul and grandeur of Essaouira's colonial past. It's part of the town's charm to see original buildings particularly outside the medina. Gradually they are being either renovated or developed but for now they provide great photo opportunities.

Despite organised protests on Sunday Feb 20th across the country this is a relaxed town and very few things can provoke the local population into organised demonstrations; tourism continues to flourish here. As a resident of Essaouira I am naturally in touch with events here on a daily basis. For those wishing to book weeks or months in advance, please rest assured any payments will be returned to you if the situation changes.

Thursday was a national holiday and with Naima's family we went to a fete near Had-Draa, north of Essaouira which displayed a quite primitive looking fairground wheel which nonetheless enthralled the local children. By Friday night we were up for some local music with the most famous Gnawi of them all, Mahmoud Guinia<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: helvetica, arial, verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px;">, </span></span>who despite an impromptu evening off played one fabulous song before we headed home.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><br />

Each day we focus on a different photographic genre that explores different parts of the town and beyond. You'll meet new people along the way and feel as if you've been here for a lifetime. It's an intense experience but one that draws people to return again. By the end of the week students are confident and independent with their photography and they've met many people and seen places that independent tourists rarely get to experience.</span><br />

On February 6th Naima and I drove the 5 or so hours from Essaouira to the small but beautifully located town, Tafraoute in the Anti Atlas range of mountains. The approach as seen above, harbours wonderful valleys of blossom. However we nearly didn't make as it as we ran out of fuel 30 km out, an hour or so from sunset. However within seconds a Berber family were passing and they located a can of diesel for us. <br />
<br />

Then I was befriended by a local guy, my age who spoke a little English and with Larbi's help after two weeks I returned to Derby with an unusual film to say the least. My return this week was exciting, naturally the town is bigger and smarter but of course the draw is the surrounding epic landscape. <br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">We were only there for the day so we headed to the painted rocks, where I had filmed the main sequence for my short. It still has a magical quality. More remarkable was that unwittingly Naima was wearing clothes that made her part of the landscape.<br />
