Miksang Photography 1 Class B
with Miriam Hall & Nicole Lionnet
Miksang is a Tibetan word that translates as “good eye”. The Nalanda Miksang school of contemplative photography brings together the art of photography, the discipline of meditation and the Dharma Art teachings of Chogyam Trungpa.
When eye and mind are in the same place one sees clearly and the visual world manifests directly. At ease and joyful, there is no struggle in making images that are strong and vivid.
This introductory training includes instruction, assignments and image reviews. No previous photography experience is necessary and you can use your phone camera or digital camera.
The program will be co-facilitated by senior Nalanda Miksang Teacher, Miriam Hall from Madison, Wisconsin and Nicole Lionnet from Adelaide, South Australia.
