The second M Vision, My Vision atelier took place in Montreal on the weekend of April 27, 2007. (Check this site regularly or drop me a line to join the email list to learn about future Leica events.)

Here are some of the comments I received from participants:

Jean, Michel, Jean Francois and all my MVision... ary mates,
A huge thanks to each of you for these three fantastic days. It was an amazing workshop with very talented people. Personally it was a very inspiring and rich learning experience but above all a great honour to be part of this trip. I simply hope this will be just a starting point for further photographic adventures together. Let's just complete this workshop activity with our MVision book project but also by considering an exhibition with the impressive material we got. Vive la photo!- Thierry Cerpolet

M_Vision nous a entraîné dans une démarche à la fois personnelle et collective. Si l’on devait se questionner sur la photographie, aussi bien dans sa documentation, l’art du moment, sa vision, les règles du jeu, la prise de vue, la création, sans risque d’oser, cette vision, à chacun d’entre nous, nous a permis de s’aventurer et d’élargir nos horizons. Merci à Jean Bardaji pour cette initiative. Merci aux photographes de M-Vision 2007. Merci à Michel Gravel de sa formidable expertise. Merci à Jean-François Gratton de sa grande qualité de photographe et de son enthousiasme sans limite. - Serge Bégin

Un petit mot pour te remercier de cette très sympatique fin de semaine, où l'échange et la fraternité firent partie de la photo. Superbes repas, bonne humeur et "fun".Merci et au plaisir de te revoir. - Pierre Grandbois

Firstly, I wish to thank you for the opportunity of joining your “atelier M Vision”, it was truly enlightening and a honor to join such an illustrious group!

The contributions of all members, quite aside from the valuable presentations and critiques of Messrs: Michel Gravel and Jean-François Gratton, showed so clearly that the story behind a capture is different to each and every viewer, and frequently different to what the photographer himself (not gender specific)may have intended! À bientôt - Lawrence Moquette

Jean, Jean-Francois et Michel, Thank you all for organizing this years's M Vision weekend. The creative, non-competitive atmosphere was very satisfying and enjoyable. I had a great time and met many wonderful and talented photographers. I look forward to next year. - Harold Rosenberg

I heartily endorse your statement It was a wonderful learning experience In addition the meeting the members of the group was extremely rewarding. - Gerald Benjamin
