The Down South Photo Show - EP169 - Brendan Waites
Q: What was Brendan's first camera worth and how did it shape his early work?
Brendan's first own camera was a Pentax K1000, a 35mm body with a tactile aperture ring; it taught him manual settings and depth of field, and sparked a focus on output and technique that influenced his early landscape work.
The Down South Photo Show - EP166 Felicity Johnson
Q: How important is background and environment in your bird photography, and what practical tips do you use?
She stresses the importance of a clean, engaging background, often moving one step to find the right catch light, and using manual settings with muscle memory. She also discusses using a diffuser for macro work and the option to switch to flash for certain shots to balance light and background.
The Down South Photo Show - EP166 Felicity Johnson
Q: What drives your photography today beyond selling prints?
Her main driver is sharing nature and inspiring others to connect with it, with a strong emphasis on conversations at markets and workshops, not just monetary gain. She prioritizes storytelling and education, using her photos to explain biodiversity and habitat.
The Down South Photo Show - EP166 Felicity Johnson
Q: What was your first camera and how did you get started with photography?

The Down South Photo Show - EP168 - Cam Blake
