I’m pleased to announce that Craig Ferguson Images and Taiwan Photographers will be hosting their first combined photography event for the Taiwan SPCA on January 24, 2010. We will be meeting at Xindian MRT Station at 3pm. Please visit Craig’s blog for my guest post about the event.
Craig and I have met on numerous occasions to talk about our love for photography and our desire to bring a community of incredible photographers together to share their passion and knowledge for this art. For me, meeting new photographers is always exciting because it gives me a chance to pick their brains and learn.
Meeting Craig for the first time was a lot like this. We met at a blogger meet-up and ended up talking cameras for most of the night. You see, I had just bought my first SLR and I had been keeping Craig busy with a number of emails asking for advice. He met up with me when I bought my first lens and guided me through the whole process of getting to know my equipment. Few people are that lucky. Few people are so generous with their time. Since then, he has been a constant source of support and encouragement and he has been a wonderful teacher. I am sure that others feel the same.
This is just one of many reasons why I am excited to be working with Craig. We are both like-minded in our desire to give something to the photography community in Taiwan. For Craig, this is a way for him to offer advice and expertise and for me, well, I’ve always enjoyed supporting photographers in Taiwan by showcasing their photographic works and various specialties. I learn something with each and every photographer I speak with.
Taiwan Photographers would like to extend a warm welcome to Craig Ferguson. 2010 is going to be a great year for photographers in Taiwan!
