Matt Granger The Nikon Guy is leaving the kangaroo world of Australia and taking his lighting workshop tour worldwide.
He has included a Toronto date and is also welcoming non-Nikon shooters. Matt is lovingly followed by shockjock Howard Stern. I personally find Matt one of the friendliest, funny, and engaging teachers of photography out there!
You can always learn a thing or two from him to help improve your work but more importantly, I love how Matt professes the Get Your Gear Out and shoot photos. Its not about the gear its about shooting pictures and having fun!
