"We photographers are nothing but a pack of crooks, thieves and voyeurs. We are to be found everywhere we are not wanted; we betray secrets that were never entrusted to us; we spy shamelessly on things that are not our business; And end up the hoarders of a vast quantity of stolen goods."

In this milestone 200th episode of the Street Shots Photography Podcast, Antonio and Ward are joined by fellow Unusual Collective buddies, Dave Szweduik and Mark Reierson. It's a relaxed, friendly chat among these brothers-in-light, reflecting on this podcast's journey and how photography has woven into the fabric of their lives. They share personal anecdotes and insights, diving into the significant moments that have shaped the podcast. It's all about the community they've fostered, their individual growth, and where their creative paths might lead next. It’s like sitting in on a conversation with old friends, reminiscing about the good times and dreaming about the future.

The discussion shifts to the philosophical, exploring "liminal spaces" in photography and the emotional depth of places overtaken by nature. They also touch on the evolution of sharing photos in the digital age, focusing more on personal fulfillment than public acclaim. The episode wraps up with insights into their individual creative journeys, the impact of early influences, and the importance of introspection in art and life.
