Week two is well underway; it’s been a great experience for all with many incredible photographs captured.   Giorgio Cosulich, our Italian FirstLight instructor, has done a fantastic job as our Lipari-based instructor: everyone not only loved his great insight into their work; they also really enjoyed his company in the islands.    All the FirstLight students will take away great memories of this trip, they’ll also all have new and powerful additions to their photographic portfolios.

We’re wrapping up the week, I’m sitting on the veranda of the Signum Hotel looking over the islands of Panarea and Stromboli in the pre-dawn light.  These islands have been a favorite place of mine since that assignment for National Geographic in late 1990’s.
