One of the things I love about Steve's DVDs is that you really feel like you're there, at one of his workshops, right along with the other shooters, but of course, since Steve's talking directly to you, you actually have more access than you would if you were there. The production quality is first rate; the locations awe inspiring, and he turns you onto to places that you'd probably never find on your own (which is one of the secrets to getting the kind of photos that everybody hasn't already seen a million times). Highly recommended!
