5 Day Deal

Every year for the past few years a number of prominent photographers, software vendors and authors have joined together to offer the 5 Day Deal, a collection of photographic tools and educational materials at a fraction of their normal cost. The deal is on again at the moment and you might like to check it out.

The deal offers

4,500+ minutes of training
1,400+ presets, actions and digital tools
340+ video tutorial segments

normally costing over $2,500 for only $117. There is also an option to pay a small additional amount that will be donated to charity and gives you additional bonus photography resources worth more than $900.

Visit 5daydeal.com for more information, but hurry; this is a time-limited offer.

Worldwide Photo Walk: A second local walk has opened

There are still plenty of slots available for the Stellenbosch walk I mentioned in my previous post but a second local walk has been announced that will follow a route from Muizenberg to St James and back. This walk also has plenty of slots available so there is now a choice for locals. Bear in mind though that the walk has a theme this year of “Monuments and Historic Places” so if you want to try and stick to the theme, the Stellenbosch walk might offer more along those lines.

Worldwide Photo Walk

The annual Kelby Worldwide Photowalk is almost upon us again, and it’s the 10th anniversary year. The date of the event is 7 October 2017 and there is one local walk scheduled so far for Stellenbosch. Go and join this walk or keep an eye on the site for other walks that might be planned for the Cape Town area. Or if you have an organisational bent, why not offer to lead a walk yourself.
