We'll pick you up from your flight at La Rochelle  An hour later you'll be sitting in front of a cosy wood fire or by the pool, depending on the season, with a good glass of wine in your hand. The cost of the weekend, arriving Thursday afternoon and leaving after a light lunch on Sunday , includes all tuition fees and use of computers and printer, 3 nights B&B, 4 course dinner with wine each night and transport to and from La Rochelle airport. In the mornings , after a leisurely breakfast, we'll set off to a nearby location - it might be elegant city of La Rochelle or the coast of the Bay d'Aiguillon - to do some photography. This is followed by lunch in tried and tested local restaurants.It should be noted that the cost of lunch is not included in the weekend price. On our return to base in the afternoon, pictures are downloaded onto computer (it's a good idea to bring your own laptop) and we'll start the first lessons in Photoshop. The Photoshop tuition caters for all levels of experience, from novice to experienced. There are never more than 4 people on any weekend.   At around 7.00pm we'll gather for an aperitif before dinner. Dinners reflect the local produce of the season, and are long leisurely affairs    - which normally means "lying in" next morning to prepare yourselves for the rigours of another day! Nikon D70 & D200 cameras are available for hire by the day. CONTACT
