Show notes

It's the first show of 2021; the mailbag show and if you're new to this podcast, during the week, I talk with photographers from all backgrounds and genres. So sport, fine art, portraits, wildlife, conflict, landscape, weddings and social, street, mindful photography too, because that played a strong lead at times last year. Then on Fridays we go walk about, with your feedback from the shows, although today it's exclusively what listener and contributor photographic plans are for 2021. This edition is also a chance to tell you news and I have some today, plus of course it's an unashamed excuse to get out with a camera, take a walk and make some pictures.

#164 Three Wise Photographers Dec 22, 2020

Show notes

"Ah, Neale has gone and found himself three very travelled seasoned known names who are about to impart wisdom gathered from their combined 14 decades of experience in the business. Let me grab a cuppa, put my feet up and prepare to soak in all they have." Well no, not exactly. I thought we'd take a different path and chat with three wise photographers who are nearer the start of their journeys, who have learned different skills, seen new things and indeed become a little wiser by daring to wonder even in the time of a pandemic, if this thing called photography can provide an income.

#161 What makes you a better photographer? The sequel Dec 17, 2020

Show notes

With help from the mailbag, today; what makes you a better photographer? It seems that it's a mix of fun, deliberate practise, varying how you work, research and learning to embrace being uncomfortable as you move your existing genre skills into another perhaps. Today is a shorter snapshot episode and we're thankful to Mike Miller whose photo essay on this subject inspired the episode.
