From Russia with Love
27 December 2007 by: YervantRussian Seminar & Workshop
I had a seminar and workshop in Moscow few months ago, the room packed with hundreds of professional photographers, a translator on my side, we spoke in PICTURES!!
An exhibition of about 120 of my images were shown in a Gallery for about 2 weeks prior to the seminar and workshop, and after the seminar, the prints have started a gallery tour in major cities throughout Russia.
I am really amazed how pictures speak one uniform language in any country, no spell check, no grammar and no funny accents ;) Everyone understands the language of pictures.
In May Anie and I did a seminar in Thessalonica Greece, almost all who attended did not speak English, but they still attended, the same in Russia, although I had a translator in both cases, the language of pictures had no barriers, the translators tried to keep up with my crazy accent and own version of the English language, got themselves very confused but the audience simply ‘got it’! Amazing!
So, I will stop talking now and just show you some pictures from Russia.
I thank Kolo Studio of Moscow for organizing such a great event.
