With heavy hearts, we are saying goodbye to this podcast.  Due to time constrains, we cannot continue to create interesting and engaging podcast.  After 8.5 years of podcasting, it's not easy to say " this is the end".  To know when to say, that's it, instead of forcing ourselves to create something interesting and compelling.  We are sorry to let this show go.

I thought of asking Kasia what were her photography mistakes or photography sins that she still does... didn't realize it would blow up in my face.  Top tip, never ask your wife about her mistakes, and never ever point them out.

We were recently discussing, what is better to invest your time and money into, gear, education or marketing.  All three are important in growing your photography.  Marketing is essential if you want to turn your photography into a viable business.  

What are you thoughts about this?  Where should you, as a photographer invest in?

We were out on a roadtrip again.  Yes back to Kasia's favourite place, the Rocky Mountains or specifically Jasper National Park.  According to the "tea leaves" weather forcast, it was supposed to be snow, flurries, and more snow, peppered with some sunshine.  Well as most "tea leaf" forecast, it was mostly wrong.  No snow, no flurries, just low hanging clouds peppered with sunshine.  In other words it was glorious.

Our friend, a great photographer and long time friend of the show Michael Van Der Tol, gave us an interesting, albeit click baity article to discuss on the the show.  It was written for fstoppers by Paul Parker and it's titled "The Death of Photoshop: A warning to photographers".

This time listening to a great episode of Street Shots Podcast, by our good friend Antonio M. Rosario, about numbers in photography, we took another trip out to break rules of photography. Why not?

First off, it was middle of the day, bautiful blue cloudless skies... these are not the conditions a landscape photographer likes.  So we attempted the impossible.  Try to create a few images that would not suck.  Have we accomplished that?  Have a look and tell us.

Another little road trip.  Film and digital together again! These little road trips are a wonderful time to spend time together, chat, and take photos.  They are also good time to forget about the daily grind, and just let your eyes and mind wonder.  No distractions, no traffic, just you and the world.  Best time to go on a date.

As I was scouring the intertubes for interesting topics, an interesting article caught my eye.  It said that it's better to take bad photos than no photos.

This sparked a discussion of what constitues a bad photo and is it really better to shoot a whole bunch of photos just to record the world or is it better to take your time and decide if you even want to create a photo.  Interesting...

With this cold weather we are experiencing right now (-41C) it's always good to be prepared when shooting outside.  Whenever you are going for a shoot either outside or in a studio, you should have a checklist of things to take, but don't forget the mental preparation.  Also be prepared to be flexible enough to take advantage of changes in weather conditions, light, mood.  In this episode we talk about how to prepare yourself as a photographer.

The internet is full of images. We share a lot. Is it better if we were a little less shary? How do you choose what to share? Does it matter? These are some questions we try to answer in this episode.

Enjoy!
