TESTIMONIALS:
"Maxis,
Absolutely Amazing! What was supposed to be an indoor seminar at Corkscrew Sanctuary turned into a hands-on, in-the-field workshop. The one-on-one time you spent with me at Estero Lagoon has me "viewing things in a different light". I've talked so much about the experience - how much you showed me in such a short time, and about your work shops that, as you already know, my girlfriend surprised me with the Gatorland Workshop for my birthday. I can't wait to see what experiences/knowledge come out of it. Thanks again for everything and can't wait for Gatorland.

"Hi Maxis,
I've been photographing birds for a few years and developed some odd habits. Maxis gently suggested better techniques for following birds in flight including custom camera settings, wimberley setup, bumping AF, and background windows. He also critiqued images on my laptop and made suggestions for camera settings to improve framing, avoiding silver eye, and post processing for noise and detail. I highly recommend his tutelage.

"Hi Maxis,
I would like to let you know how much I appreciated attending the Weedon Island Preserve Seminar, September 12Th in St. Petersburg. Although the severe rainy weather likely kept a number of people from attending The Birds in Flight & Panning Workshop, those who chose not
to attend missed a wonderful informative photography program.
As a first-time participant to one of your seminars, I wasn't sure what to
expect. It was nice that you started with the basics and continued in a clear, concise way of explaining techniques. Not only was the topic thoroughly covered, but you answered questions during the session and
encouraged additional questions at the end. I especially liked the way you answered a question and then return quickly back to where you left
off in your lecture.
Your willingness to bring your own camera, lens and accessories and demonstrate how you use them provided a more informative learning style
for me. Encouraging us to bring our own equipment gave us a forum to compare some different examples. Beginners or seasoned bird photographers should have come away from this
seminar with helpful skills and information. I know I did!
One suggestion for the future would be that everyone leave with something in their hands from the seminar. The CD is a nice review aide and maybe should be considered in the price of the Class.

"Hi Maxis,
Thanks again for the seminar. It is great to meet someone who is self taught and can pass along the knowledge that you have gained through your time and effort in an easy to understand manner. The important thing you demonstrate is that your methods work as proven by the gorgeous image gallery that you display.
You present the material in such a way that I believe everyone is comfortable regardless of their skill level and you encourage questions without regards to "watching the clock." I believe that I was in the minority shooting Nikon but your familiarity with their equipment and systems allows me to gain even though you use Canon. I look forward to your next workshop!
