Comment(s):I think its very ice that Backscatter is offer a free two day seminar on digital photography. The announcement’s timing leaves a bit to be desired. Its now February 10th and this has just shown up. Long after most people may have made plans for the coming weekend. Wouldn’t it be much more helpful if events like this were anounced at least several weeks in advance.
