Photography Question 

Philip S. Camilleri
 

4 and 8 week courses


I have tried to find the 4-8 week corses. There does not seem to be an easy way to get there. What can I do to get this going? Phil Camilleri

  The courses are no longer available at this time. Don't know when or if they will come back.

  I found them and enrolled in a landscape one. They debited my card.
However the email I received said it would start in Jan. 1898.
I've sent an email and no response.

  Brenda, where did you sign up for the landscape course? The only courses I'm aware of are those on the main "Courses" tab:

  After reading Brenda's post, I went to my "wishlist" and discovered that all the classes on the list that were being taught by other instructors are now being taught by Jim but none are listed under the "courses" tab. Hmmm.

  Brenda, I have to think that's an outdated link. Did you navigate to it on the site, or did you have it bookmarked? Just curious. I hope BP chimes in soon.

  I navigated it on the site. I joined BP in late Jan. have been working at building my site.
Last Tuesday started browsing through the BP site, found the 4 classes under courses, signed up and have completed the one on Photoshop.

I don't know where I found the one I thought I was purchasing, and the one I added to my wish list. But there was a bunch of them listed on that page.

When I got the email on 3-31 I emailed back asking about the start date. It let me fill out the survey. I haven't heard back from anyone. How long does it take usually to hear from some one, or is there a better email address to send it to.
My credit card was charged, if there is no class available, I'd like my $198 back.

  Jim Zuckerman's site links to the BP classes that he used to (?) teach. His links take you to the BP signup page, where you can add to your cart and checkout. I've wondered if he still teaches them.

  I got an email this morning. All courses have been canceled (pursuing other business areas), my $$$ for the course I enrolled in has been refunded.

It was just my dumb luck to stumble on a link that had not been deleted.
Can anyone suggest on-line courses that are strictly advanced wildlife/landscape?

Thanks
B

  Well as BP no longer provides these courses, they shouldn't object to this post. Creativelive provides a course and there are several shorter classes at KelbyOne.

  Thanks for the info.

I hope I didn't offend anyone asking. I just want to take my landscape to the next level.
