Earlier I too had contacted some studios in my locality and they are also looking forward for alternativre. Here these people are much more organised with an active photographers assosiation. So if we can talk with them they would be willing to attend classes. So it would be better if we can hold one in Thrissur. Ask the one mentioned above to come to Thrissur since we can expect a better polling out here in Thrissur. They wanted a supporting tool for their printers and had found many useful utilities online. Will provide details later on. Think about this.. @Jemshid: Please make sure that the reply-to address setting of yours is not to your mail-id, but to the mailing list itself.
