I recently presented to the professional photographers program at Langara College for Sony of Canada. There was a great turn-out and the show went on well beyond the scheduled end with some great questions from the students. Here is some of the feedback:

The fact that nearly everyone stayed longer than was scheduled, and that some of them stayed for nearly an hour later is a testament to what a great presentation it was. The fact that you were on there for an hour longer than necessary says something about you as a person. From my own personal perspective, I go to so many of these presentations every year that I’ve almost completely stopped taking notes. Last night I actually took a few notes and more importantly, I was inspired to get back out with my long lenses. Thank you.
