One effective way to make sure your software subscriptions don't rack up is to switch off the auto-renew. Adrian has actively built this into his photography hobby - choosing a new thing every year based on whatever creative whim takes him at the time. And it's come around again - time to choose a new app! With little help from Jeremiah and Chris that is.

Mentioned in the show: Davinci Resolve VSCO Polarr LD (Lens Distortions) Photopea Gemini Nano Banana

What if the best way to consider newly relesed cameras was in order of size? Is it the only meaningful metric left? And if so, do you start small and go up or start big and go down?

Not in size order, the cameras we talked about in the show: Ricoh GR IV Hasselblad X2D II 100C Nikon ZR iPhone 17 Pro

No CGI here boss, honest! Or is there... This week, inspired by Hollywood directors who "[do it all in camera](https://youtu.be/hniWOH_zwh8 )", we take a look at the spectrum from SOOC to Generated and explore our personal views on what impact that has on photography. What do you think?

When a photographer and an idea love each other very much... this week we consider high concept photography. Inspired by Nadia Lee Cohen and Martin Parr's new book Julie Bullard, we discuss how work like this is even conceivable. And then with the help of YouTuber Tim Runia, how it is we can get started on projects of this kind.

357 Eroding Creativity Aug 27, 2025

Show notes

Watch this on video | Join us on Discord for more TFOP chat!

There’s a lot of commentary on social media at the moment about modern tools making us too comfortable to create and (of course) algorithms sundering our culture. But it’s a multi-dimensional thing for sure and each of those dimensions you could pick one side or the other.

So what happened to suffering for our art? What happened to 10,000hours? Are we all destined to morph into super-saturated influencers in sponsored bikinis? Or should we go back to pouring chemicals onto glass plates?

Let’s debate!

All the making! Making friends, making prints, making photos, making whoopee, making book. This week we talk - and had to stop ourselves on time rather than topics 😀 - about making photo books. Zines, fine art, journals... It turns out Adrian even knows the difference between a monograph and a retrospective, well, at least after thinking it through.

Where do we go from here? No point in sharing our photos on socials anymore - they're dead, just an advertising feed. Or are they? But how should we discover new things? How do we get past the bots to engage with real humans?

For a while now - actually quite a long while - we have been publishing our shows as video on YouTube. Recently, we have added Shorts to our channel as little samples of good the whole thing really is 😀. that could mean a whole lot of editing and publishing work for the team except that - because Chris is a genius (note from Chris: the robots deserve all the credit, I basically just yelled "enhance!") - it's all automated thorugh vibe coding with AIs. Tune in to hear Chris explain how he works this magic!
