Two Batches
Batch I : 9th & 10th October 2010
Batch II : 16th & 17th October 2010
Location: Ghatkopar, Mumbai
Time: Day 1 - 14:00 to 19:00 ; Day 2 - 08:30 to 13:30
This workshop will cover various aspects of nature and wildlife photography and delve deeply into how to process your pictures after they have been shot. As you would realize, in outdoor photography, the variability of light, subject location and mobility creates many barriers to getting a perfect frame and post-processing greatly helps enhance your picture quality.
The workshop will entail intensive sessions on the technical as well as practical aspects of nature photography and hands-on training on how to suitably edit your photographs.
*About Sachin Rai
Stepping into the photography scenario more than a decade ago, Sachin has passionately explored far and wide corners of the country to capture vivid images of wildlife ranging from tiny beetles, rare herpeto-fauna to the mighty beasts of forests and deserts. His photographs have found their way into a variety of magazines, newspapers, books and calendars. He has very liberally shared his evolved sense of design for making films, developing literature or presentations to facilitate conservation objectives of several organizations.
Apart from Special Mentions at Sanctuary Asia’s Photography Competition from 2007-09, Sachin has received the Sanctuary Asia - ABN Amro Award for the Photographer of the Year (2007) and also the Joint Second Prize for Photography at the same event. He has also received a Special Mention in the Better Photography Wildlife Contest in January 2009. Sachin is rated as one of the top bird photographers in the country by a leading website.
In his words, "Exploring the wonders of wilderness is a fervor I cultivated since childhood. Wildlife photography gives me immense pleasure and contentment and I would like to spend all my life chasing my passion and initiating people into this marvellous world!"

"The workshop was really very enlightening. I wish to thank you for organising such a well-managed workshop. If there are any such workshops or trails/ trips relating to nature/wildlife please do let me know. Thank You," ~ Neil Mehta
"I am sure everybody could learn something that made them understand the art of photography better. It certainly improved my skills and made me think about various aspects of photography. I have started to think a little more before clicking any photo; thanks to Sachin” ~ Ovee Thorat
“I have owned a camera since long but have never known the wonders I can create with it using the various exciting features it has to offer! The personal attention Sachin gives to each student and the patience with which he explains all the nitty-gritty is admirable. His knowledge is extensive and his understanding of post-processing - deep. Thanks for the wonderful photography trail, too!” ~ Ajay Bijoor
“Someone has rightly said that all life is learning and this is personified by Sachin's photography skills. He is one of the best persons in the field from whom you can gain a lot of knowledge not just about your equipment but also about wildlife. His award-winning pictures are a result of relentless tenacity and he is ever-willing to share the secret ingredients of this recipe! I would greatly recommend his workshop to amateurs – to solidify the basics and to the experienced – to revisit and strengthen their foundation.” ~ Jayesh Joshi
