SW Ireland Monochrom Workshop | Sep. 21 - 30, 2018


Image by Richard Sexton

Join Leica Store Miami and fine art photographer Richard Sexton for an all-inclusive 10 day workshop in scenic southwest Ireland. We'll journey to Cork, Killarney, the Ring of Kerry, the Dingle Peninsula, the Aran Islands, the Cliffs of Moher, Galway and more. Leica specialist Peter Dooling from Leica Store Miami will be on hand to give assistance and advice and help you get the most out of your Leica.

Craggy coastlines, lush forests, quaint villages, prehistoric ruins, castles, rolling hillsides, lively pubs, all steeped in a rich, complex history, make Ireland the perfect location for a destination workshop, particularly for black and white photography.

For all Ireland’s beauty, the weather can be challenging. Sunny days are mixed with windy drizzle. A cloudy, foggy day in Ireland is a normal day. But for those working in black and white, if you brave the mist you can come away with some truly dramatic, atmospheric imagery. This is the beauty of black and white photography: It is more subjective, more interpretive. And it requires a certain vision, an ability to interpret a reality rendered only through shades of gray. Light and shadow is the language of the image.

Black and white photography is not easy, nor is it merely color photography absent the color. It is a separate, challenging medium and Ireland is the perfect proving ground.
