Talking about photo-workshops.
I've got an excellent offer from Pangolin (because I am subscribed) but I have booked and already paid my Africa trip in Sep/Oct 2023. Otherwise I would have taken the offer ;-)
Perhaps, somebody would be interested. Here is a text from Toby (Pangolin):
I wanted to give you a heads up about some
Best of Chobe Photo Safari dates that we have just released which I think you might be interested in.
We had a cancellation of a group that has left a gap and rather than let it lie empty we wanted to offer an amazing deal on our best selling Best of Chobe 7 day safari in this coming September 2023.
The Best Of Chobe includes three nights on The Pangolin Voyager Houseboat followed by three more at The Pangolin Chobe Hotel in the company of one of the Pangolin Photo Hosts. Here are the
details.
If you don't have a camera and telephoto lens we can lend you one for the duration...all you have to do is get
here!
We have three sets of back to back dates and we are reducing the price from $3,995 to $2,500 (R44,000 for SA) and not charging a single supplement if you want your own room!
Here are the dates we have available.
19 – 25 Sep 2023
22 – 28 Sep 2023
25 Sep – 1 Oct 2023
These are going to fill fast so if you are keen please email [email protected] (or reply to this mail) and we can save you a space on this safari.
All the best,
Toby

I assume, they have it on their site as well.
I think, they are very good Photo-hosts and the price is excellent taking in account you don't need to pay more as a singe traveller.
I've met Guts (from Pangolin) in 2013 in Senyati camp, it was in the beginning of the Pangolin carrier. I've been on Pangolin boat in 2016 with Tuskphoto (photo-host Wim van den Heever). I think, the offer-price for 6 nights all inclusive is very attractive and pangolin has very professional photo-hosts!
I think also, that not only photographic skills are important fo the photo-hosts but also organisational and social. And Wim von den Heever was just great! He also didn't take photos by himself but was taking care about us. I participated in three wrkshops of Tuskphoto, in one of Stefan Tungler in Africa and in some photo workshops in Europe.
