Jack and John are happy to welcome back to the program the wonderful Michael Gordon to talk about his new book Denizens as well as a host of other topics. Michael is the preeminent desert photographer and Denizens encapsulates over 20 years of his work in the deserts. Please join them for a wonderful discussion about the creative arts and Michaels journey along the way!
Michael E. Gordon is an award-winning fine art landscape photographer best known for his black and white impressions of California’s deserts which, said Broughton Quarterly, portrays “stunning ethereal beauty from terrain where others see only a bleak landscape.” A lifelong student of nature and wilderness, Michael’s intimate relationship with the natural world yields quiet images of depth and discovery.

Jack and John are honored to have two of our dear friends on the program; Guy Tal and Colleen Miniuk. Both of these amazing people have new books, either out or coming soon, focused on self-discovery, philosophy along with some amazing photography. We are pleased to welcome them both on the program to discuss their books and how their creative lives have been impacted and grown as a result of their self-discovery work. Listen in to this amazing episode with two of the BEST people!
For 40 years, Colleen Miniuk relentlessly pursued perfection, achievement, and success without finding happiness. Then she found herself unexpectedly facing the end of her marriage. To cope with the devastating loss, she and her mother, Jacque, attempted to paddle across Lake Powell, a reservoir along the Colorado River on the Utah-Arizona border. Like life, the trip did not go as planned.
How do you find fulfillment, especially while navigating life’s hardships?
How do you become a free-flowing river when you’ve run into a dam and life tries to turn you into a reservoir?
During her raw adventures on the Colorado from Moab to Lake Mead, Colleen challenges beliefs, confronts fears, and finds the courage to live deliberately and authentically. Out of the storms and rapids, she discovers that “happily ever after” sometimes looks different than what we have been told.
So Said the River shares one woman’s riveting journey of self-discovery. It encourages readers to create their own definition of success and inspires confidence in those who have chosen, or may choose, non-traditional ways to live one’s life.

An inspiring, educational, and practical book about philosophy and art, and finding a personally meaningful life.
Teacher, philosopher, and author Guy Tal has written several best-selling books on photography, creativity, and expression. While it would be understandable to label Guy a “photographer,” it is more accurate to call him a philosopher and artist who has forged a creative life on his own terms: a life shaped by his love of nature, his interest in science and philosophy, his individualistic temperament, and his desire to create art that is expressive and significant in the ways most meaningful to him.
In Be Extraordinary: Philosophical Advice for Photographic and Other Artists, Guy shares his knowledge of philosophy and art, then offers advice on how to implement it into your own work. In the first part, “Foundations,” Guy lays out a conceptual framework for the book with short essays about philosophy and art. In the second part, “Practical Advice,” he offers a series of brief essays aiming to enable and empower you to apply the foundational philosophies to your own life and work. Together, the two parts demonstrate how Guy has carefully fashioned his own perspective on philosophy, art, and life, and offer you a set of tools for finding your own path.

Jack and John welcome Alister Benn back to the program to discuss his recent move to an island in Scotland and how location can be instrumental in both the creative aspects of photography as well as the restorative benefits that a location can provide.
A bit about Alister and Expressive Photography
Expressive Photography Ltd was founded by Scottish landscape photographer me, Alister Benn and my wife, Norwegian artist Ann Kristin Lindaas. Our idea is to strip photography education back down to the absolute basics; the landscape, our engagement, passion and expression. Yes, there are all sorts of techniques, styles and locations, but we often forget why we picked up a camera in the first place, we love being in nature.

It’s all the same, no matter what you are photographing.
