Looking at Your Old Images with a Fresh Perspective As photographers, we are on a never-ending quest to create something new and unusual.

January 06, 2024 14:00 - 3 minutes - 4.9 MB

We, photographers, are notorious packrats! It’s hard not to be when photography involves so much. Many of us have years’ worth of collected gear, boxes upon boxes of prints and negatives, albums, portfolios, collected hard drives of digital data, and so on. Eventually, that leads to a rather large problem. What do we do with all of this stuff? We can’t keep it all forever—and that’s the thing. Even if we may have virtually limitless space, life will always force a change one way or another...

WM-392: Are We Overlooking the Shadows? | Photography Clips Podcast

December 25, 2023 14:00 - 3 minutes - 4.85 MB

Sometimes, when taking photographs, I think of that old saying, “You can’t have light without darkness.” I’m not sure who said it, but it’s a pervasive saying, usually referring to enduring hard times.

Can photography be a team sport? In some ways, yes, it can be. It’s very often a solitary activity simply because it takes a lot of thought.

After we’ve created the digital negative, we’re also the ones who spend hours on...
