iPhone 17 - Part 1 - TDS Photography Podcast
This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,016, Sept. 9, 2025. Today's theme is, "iPhone 17 - Part 1." I'm Derrick Story.
Opening Monologue
Back in May, when I crushed the screen of my iPhone 15 Pro Max, I pledged that I would not buy a replacement until the iPhone 17 Pro was released. And I have stayed true to my word. But now the day is here. In this Part 1 report I will recap how I navigated the summer with a patchwork of devices to get me to this week's unveiling of the latest from Apple. I hope you enjoy the show.

iPhone 17 - Part 1
This week's show will be split in two parts. I'm recording Part 1 on Monday, Sept. 8, one day before the iPhone 17 announcement. Then I will record Part 2 after the Apple event with my impressions of what transpired.
I'm taking this approach because I don't want to release the podcast later than usual because of the timing of the Apple event, and I don't want to wait a week to discuss the announcements because there's lots going on right now. So here we are, Part 1!
How was my summer with a partially functioning (at best) iPhone 15 Pro Max? Here's how I pulled it off.

Route 66 Photography Workshop - Oct. 14-17, 2025 - Join photographer and Route 66 explorer Rob Knight to explore the "mother road" this October 14-17. The stretch of Route 66 through northern Arizona contains many of the most iconic spots that still exist from the heyday of American car culture. We will visit towns along Route 66 like Seligman, Oatman, and Williams, Arizona. Along the way we will explore and photograph the roadside attractions that made Route 66 so legendary, like motels, gas stations, and more.
The workshop will combine field work and exploration with lab sessions to make sure you come home with some iconic shots. Rob has been exploring and photographing Route 66 for 13 years, and he will make sure you are in the right place at the right time for the best light and photographic opportunities. Meet the group in Las Vegas, then head south where your days will be filled with exploration, learning, and great photography.
