When I was to come from Poland to Chicago for a short time I thought “I’ve Got to do something connected with photography”. I googled workshops in Chicago and saw awesome pictures by Chuck Jines. I wrote to him and…. a day after workshops I may say I am not disappointed, even more, I ca say it was a great day. We took pictures on the street, he told about his approach to photography and showed how to become more courageous in taking pictures. Hmmm… so I think I took my first “real” American street photos (or at least I hope I did 😉 we also visited some nice non touristic places in the loop. Had a great fun, get to know a lot about photography and took some cool pictures. Thanks Chuck.

Mialam przyjechac na krotki czas z Polski do Chicago i pomyslalam “Musze zrobic cos zwiazanego z fotografia. Wygoolowalam wiec warsztatay fotograficzne w Chicago i zobaczylam swietne zdjecia Chucka Jines. Napisalam do niego … i dzisiaj dzien po warsztatach moge powiedziec, ze nie jestem rozczarowana, wiecej to byl bardzo fajny dzien. Robilismy zdjecia uliczne, Chuck opowiedzial mi o swoim podejsciu do fotografii i pokazal jak byc bardziej odwaznym w robieniu zdjec. Hmmm … mysle ze zrobilam moje pierwsze prawdziwe zdjecia uliczne w Ameryce (albo przynajmniej mam taka nadzieje, ze zrobilam ;). Odwiedzilismy tez kilka ladnych nieturystycznych miejsc na loop’ie. Swietnie spedzilam czas, dowiedzialam sie wiele o fotografii i zrobilam ciekawe zdjecia. Dzieki Chuck”
Thanks, Bozena! I had a really fun time shooting with you. Be sure to send me a few shots once you get home and have time to process your images.
