Like each new workshop is like starting from scratch, each day of it is also starting from scratch. In every meeting he would choose a few photos but the next morning we start again from blank. The days are long and intense, but for me it’s just pure joy. We have some good days but others we hit the wall. It’s inexplicable the pleasure we have when we manage to go over that wall. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn’t. But as Nikos well said: “We can have good days and bad days. But that is not important. What really matters is that we never lose the great feeling of wanting to go out and take photos. That, it is very important.” And I do hope, to never lose that feeling.
Niko, thank you again, and I am already looking forward to Argentina next month.

I participated in just one workshop with Nikos so far, and now I see why people want to do it over and over again. It was a unique experience! It is amazing how my way of seeing things changed in one week.Nikos is a great photographer and an educator. I will certainly return.

This was my third workshop with Nikos. The Iran trip was a unique journey and we all had a great time. But more important, thanks to the up-front teaching of Nikos, I could made a big step forward in my photography. I’m looking forward going with Nikos “on the road” again!

I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for all of the guidance and support you have provided me as a www.ontheroad.greloping photographer.
Your expertise in composition and storytelling has truly helped me to www.ontheroad.grelop my photographic eye and to think more deeply about the messages and stories that can be conveyed through photography.
I have appreciated very much, the way that you take the time to review my work, editing each picture and explaining every detail. Whether we have met in person during workshops or through Zoom sessions, your feedback has always been gentle yet constructive, pointing me in the right directions to further www.ontheroad.grelop my skills.
You have taught me that every picture must stand on its own in terms of composition and that each one should tell a complete story.
Your own masterful ability to create complex situations or to focus on a single subject always triggers empathy and astonishment in the viewer, and I am so grateful for the way you have taught me, to hopefully do this in my own work.
Thank you for being such an extraordinary teacher and mentor, and for sharing your wisdom and expertise with me. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from you and to grow as a photographer under your guidance.
Lookin forward to continue our journey together.
All the best

The workshop was great. The city, the reviews and your advice helped me out to feel more confident and find a different approach to photography.

Second, I really enjoy to experience and to watch how good you are pedagogically. One little step at a time, go easy, you manage to lift us all a little bit – also the not so experienced. Thank you so much for that!
You do it so well, and discreetly – I think we hardly notice that we learn something, a little at a time. And also always interesting to listen when you tell of your experiences, travels, of the history of photography and the great photographers in the past.
I come home happy, having learned a lot. Now looking at my photos with more critical eyes, knowing maybe how to do it better next time.

It’s my fifth workshop and I can’t imagine a better mentor for my work combined with a great journey and colleagues. Once your on the road with Nikos you stay on the road with Nikos..
