April 2007:

Ron worked with the National Geographic Channel and Sony on photo shoots in Vietnam and Hong Kong that were designed to provide feedback and explore the capabilities of Sony's new entries into the digital SLR camera market. Following the successful shoots, he spoke to audiences in Australia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Malaysia. The lectures were aimed to help amateur photographers improve their photographic skills and were centred around the visual exploration, anticipation, and mental mindset required in order to produce a meaningful photograph.
