• USA. North Dakota. 2012. This old schoolhouse became a dance hall at one point but has been abandoned for about 50 years. Steve EricksonÕs son will never know a life without lots of money. Nor a life without heavy trucking and oil wells now dotting the once farming only community. Grasslands are oil lands. There is a sea of oil right here larger than Saudi fields. No unemployment here now for the forseeable future. Locals are happy to make the hard cash and feel this will make the U.S. indepedent of foreign oil.

David will be teaching 2 upcoming workshops at Gulf Photo Plus in Dubai in March 2013:

Editing Your Project (2 days): In this 2-day workshop, David will help put you on the right path of the incredibly difficult process of editing your work to be able to create a cohesive body of work from a vast selection of shots to be able to tell your story clearly and with impact.

The workshops are limited to 10 spaces so book soon to secure your space. For more info: http://gulfphotoplus.com/gpp/2013/workshops/182/Editing-Your-Project

Finding Your Voice (3 Days) In this workshop we will focus on story formation, visual literacy, and personal vision. You will be mentored to find your own voice to say what you want to say, to look deep inside your own soul and then figure out a way to say it. He will lead the group through a daily program of shooting, reviews, group critiques, mentoring, editing sessions and the opportunity to learn amongst peers.

This workshop is aimed at photographers who are dedicated to pushing their own personal photographic boundaries, including both professional and emerging & amateur photographers.
