    Meanguera Island 2010/ New date: August 1st-7th 2010

    I wanted to remind folks about our new date for the  Tortuga Photo Workshop on the Island of Meanguera in El Salvador.  It has been rescheduled for August 1st through the 7th 2010.   If you sign up you will be part of an incredible experience where you can develop and strengthen your photographic skills in a remote area of the world that offers the ideal opportunity to document a small fishing community in the Gulf of Fonseca. The photo you see above is the view you’ll have everyday as you wake up and embrace the island.  It will also be our eating and meeting area every evening to review the images you’ve captured throughout the day.  The island which is located some 10 miles off the mainland is home to a fishermen community who struggles to make ends meet due to overfishing by large international corporations.  As a result the local fishermen are forced to navigate their single engine boats farther out to sea to drop their nets and capture fish.  August is the rainy season in Central America but it rarely rains on the island and the days are filled with sunshine in the day and cool breezes in the evening.  On a certain evening we’ll go out at night to a deserted part of the island and watch a nightlife display provided by sea creatures that rise to the surface and illuminate the sea.  Our boat guide Francisco Orellana will guide us on this tour and tell stories of his experiences while fishing out at sea.  Photographer Steven St. John and I will be your guides and we’ll provide you with inside knowledge of working under pressure in any situation to get the photo job done.  All you need to worry is getting to the airport in El Salvador (Comalapa Airport) and leave the rest to us.  Once you pay for your trip you will not have to worry about expending money except for additional adult beverages on the island.  Come join us for what is sure to be an adventure with your camera.
