wanted: donated CD/DVD tutorials for Cuban photo school

[Bob Michaels]

If anyone has used photo tutorials on CD or DVD that they would like to donate to the Escuela de Fotografia Creativa de La Habana (Havana School of Creative Photography) I will be making a trip down in late September. They can work with English if necessary although Spanish is divine. Topics include everything as they have little. They really appreciate "How to use you XXX camera" or Image Processing, Lighting, Posing, you got it, they value it.

Unfortunately hard copy books will not work because of the airline $1 per pound excess baggage charge and the fact that I cannot lug boxes of books through the airports, customs, taxis.

I do have one XL t-shirt embossed "Escuela de Fotografia Cerative de La Habana" which I will send to someone making a great donation.

I will reimburse you for the postage for sending things to me if you want.

The school's website is http://www.efchabana.com/

They have no use for actual software programs like older versions of Photoshop or Lightroom. Because of the US embargo, they cannot buy American software so are masters at piracy. Everyone has a bootleg copy of CS6 and LR4.

Best contact for me is e-mail Bob at BobMichaels dot ORG

thanks,

Hi Bob,

Would the DVD tutorial of " The best of photoshop user: the 6th year" (also have 8th and 9th year) featuring Scott Kelby, Felix Nelson, and Dave Cross, Matt Kloskowski, Corey Barker be of use to the school? As well there's a "Best of Layers Magazine" for Adobe Creative Suite Tricks and tips, though it's for CS2.

HLing: something like "best of Photoshop......................." would be ideal.

Finguango: actual wet darkroom tutorials are limited as there is no chemistry or paper in Cuba. But anything else you have would be appreciated.

Would both of you be so kind to reply via my e-mail Bob at BobMichaels dot ORG and I will post you my postal address. I no longer get notified of PM's here.

thanks
