Whimsical, bizarre, barren &amp; curiously impermanent this environment embodies all that is surreal and offers the photographer a unique and challenging environment to explore their creative vision.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 9pt;\"> John Paul Caponigro&#8217;s workshop was an experience I won&#8217;t soon forget. It seemed sincerely aimed at forwarding each participant&#8217;s goals in photography. Me: I was seeking a spark of inspiration and a new perspective on seeing. JP delivered on both. He offered strategies that really resonated with me; he focused on exploring the final 20 and the nuances of what can be. As a result, I am convinced that many of the best images I captured were of scenes I would have walked right past a week prior.&#8221;<br \/>\n<!--more--><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter
