"When I first came to the American Southwest, it was difficult for me to comprehend its vastness.
A place where the sky and horizon met below my feet and the stars formed a canopy so that the
earth I slept on seemed like a cradle. Over the years that I've lived here, I have tried to place it in
perspective in the context of my life in order to better understand my sphere of reality. I used to define
my reality and my world by my limited experience, and in that way limited myself to the immense
possibilities available to me. What I discovered, living in the Southwest with its wide open spaces,
is just how much room there is in me to remember and rediscover the peace and center of my soul.
I have learned that the beauty all around me is a reminder of the vast beauty inside me
... much of which is still waiting to be explored..."

Testimonial: 
A great big GIGANTIC "Thank you" for the AWESOME photo tour! It was fantastic....indeed a highlight life experience. I'm really greatful for the shooting tips but more so for your "photography as a meditation" philosophy. Of all the instruction you gave me, this mindfulness viewpoint resonated the most and will endure with me in all my future endeavors. I also appreciate your flexibility and am now convinced that a good scene can be had, no matter what the situation may be. Gabe Mounce, Albuquerque, NM

The four days I spent with Geraint made for the best photography workshop I've ever attended. He was generous with his
time and even more giving with his knowledge. His patient, supportive approach created a learning environment where I
could proceed at my own pace. We explored some wonderful locations and were able to interact with a number of colorful
characters. Mark van Doren said, "The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery." That's a perfect description of
what Geraint does. Ron Richardson, Jasper, Alabama
