Ep. 322: Travelling at the speed of light

Whoosh! Spring has sprung - or at least is springing, and only if you live in the northern hemisphere - but you get the point. When our minds turn to travelling with for photography and with our cameras, what do we look for? Truly we chase the light 😀!

Ep. 320: Ariela Badenas

In this episode we chat with delightful Ariela Badenas who's a photographer from Vancouver, Canada. She tells us why she loves film, how important community darkrooms are and why she would rather wear all her clothes on top of each other than not have enough space in her bag for cameras when travelling.

Ep. 317: Style with Nick Carver

Welcome to our mini-series on photographic style! We’ve been wanting to discuss style for ages but didn’t feel we could do it justice in a single show so it was a great topic for our first foray into longer conversations. (Yeah, ok some of the earlier Sunny 16s did go on for hours 😂.)

 

What is photographic style? How do you get a style? Can you choose a style? How do you learn from others and take inspiration from their work without copying?

 

To help us dive in, our super special guest is Nick Carver - film photographer, educator, YouTuber and a fellow traveller on the journey to understanding this elusive subject.

 

Nick recently posted a video on style in his own work. And his website has some awesome collections!

Ep. 316: Outsider Artists

The reality of making this show has been a much richer discussion than any of us expected. We talk about Outsider Artists - their work, the impact they have had on the art world when finally recognised, exploitation of unintended legacies - the list is long and we have only scratched the surface!

 

Photographers mentioned in the show

Tune in for the long-awaited (sorry about that folks) conclusion and results of the Cheapshots Challenge. Our theme is harvest and our show is replete with metaphorical and abstract interpretations of the theme - with a few actually-on-brief submissions as well 😀.

 

Many thanks to everyone who submitted images - as you will hear, we got some awesome stuff!
