This week we reflect on two weeks in Washington, the strangest Christmas shoot, how photography helped one listener battle Ménières and the strangest items photographed and found in waste skips.

Show notes

On the day the States welcomes in a new President, I have two stories, one of a photograph that became the favourite Inauguration Day picture for Barack Obama and then we talk music and how a science lesson helped a photography student become one of the leading lights of hip hop in its golden period; Anderson Ballantyne is my guest. Links to the pictures and sites discussed can be found HERE.

#178 Stop the steal's frozen moment: Inauguration week Jan 18, 2021

Show notes

American photojournalist Raquel Natalicchio, in Washington this week for the Inauguration of the 46th President of the United States of America, talks of the stop the steal rally in LA outside City Hall, where she trained her camera on the plight of a woman called Berlinda Nibo, attacked by a mob of protestors, set upon, beaten, maced and racially assaulted. Raquel made a record as the ordeal took place and recounts two stories, as a photographer and as a person. See the show notes HERE.

#177 Friday Photowalk: Wild horses and dirty boots Jan 15, 2021

Show notes

The mailbag show; today we talk monochromatic sensors, shooting style, Berlin sights and capturing the stars as I walk once more closer to home, a result of pandemic restrictions. Snelsmore Common; dry heath, birch woods and a 5000 year old layer of peat, a military depot during WW2, now a rambler's paradise and home to wild ponies. The signs say don't feed and don't pet. I'm not sure that applies to the ramblers or the ponies. See the photographs from this walk, listener pics and links HERE.

#176 Break dancing, street art and the 'Black Sun' Jan 13, 2021

Show notes

Renowned Danish portrait photographer Søren Solkær is back for the second concluding part to his story and we talk about two very different projects, both however involve a lot of flight in their own ways and both are the result of inspiration while growing up. In the first, a project that followed street artists twice around the planet, and the second; his incredible Black Sun project about Starlings!

#175 Extraordinary ordinary pictures: our legacy Jan 11, 2021

Show notes

I am in a philosophically reminiscent, nostalgic mood with a very different story of photographic life from the news photojournalism, sports shooting, exploration, wildlife and world events mode that I'm often in during these show. Meet Vanessa Simpson, a portrait photographer at the start of her professional foray into making pictures and equally nearer the start of one particular project that in many respects focuses upon the end of the story for others. Today is about legacy. See the SHOW NOTES.

#174 The Capitol, what the photographer saw! Jan 09, 2021

Show notes

A Saturday extra edition today talking to DC photojournalist David Butow. He came to Washington at the start of the Trump presidency to see how the story might play out. And as the last days of President Trump's residence within 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue do exactly that, David found himself on Wednesday afternoon at yet another rally, but one that was to take an ugly turn.
