  • Best Photo Podcast

    I love this podcast! Out of all the photography podcasts I’ve listened to, this one brings me joy! Neale’s excitement is contagious and I typically listen to it while I’m out on my daily walk. I recently grabbed my camera and went walking on a wooded trail. The entire time I could hear Neale’s voice in my head. I wondered what Neale would see on my walk. He’s made me stop and enjoy the little things. Keep up the good work. A fan from the USA
