  • Ideas on Time and Presence in Your Photographic Process
    Jun 24 2024
    This week's podcast asks you to forget the technical jargon or future worries that you might have in your photographic practice. Instead, in episode 485, we are talking about how Edward Hoppers desire to appreciating light on a building, Cezannes seeing the surroundings, and the beauty of just staying put to catch those subtle changes can make a different in our work. We also dig a little into how those ideas become as Louis Kahn says our teachers. After all our work, is about creating a deep connection with the moment of when we are out there with our camera. Often easier said than done. "When we shift from that, when we move from thinking about just the quality of light, that simple idea of painting the side of a house, photographing the side of the house with the light on it. And we shift into worrying about what it should be, what it could be, what it might be. We leave the present moment." Gear used in the podcast One of the questions I get asked frequently is what sort of equipment do I use to record my podcast. I have used a variety of equipment in the years that I have been recording, but here is the current list of equipment that I am using.

  • Revealing Your Photography Personality through F-Stops
    Jun 10 2024
    Welcome to podcast 483, In this podcast, I’m diving into the world of f stops and depth of field in photography. Imagine your favorite f stop as a personality quiz—revealing the unique characteristics that define how you see and capture the world. You can of course start with Lightroom’s library filter bar to uncover your natural shooting habits, helping you understand your personal photography style with a metadata sort by f.stop. But rather than be just that simple, I dive into the impacts of f/stops as we explore the power of depth of field in guiding focus, telling compelling stories, and expressing intention in every shot. Whether you’re drawn to lush, blurred backgrounds or crave crisp, all-encompassing detail, it’s all about the details you value. hopefully with some thoughts on how to prioritize elements like sharpness, light, color, and technique, all while keeping your approach simple and true to your vision. Your signature and style, be it a favorite aperture or shutter speed, say something about who you are. I hope you spend a little time figuring out if you are an f/8 or f/16 sort of person.
