  • I like when experts share advanced skills/tricks

    Not interested in learning about the people, very interested in what they can teach me (no beginner content). Getting the shot, editing the shot, things not obvious to a novice who already watched every intro video.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Forest Barkdoll-Weil - Turning a Vision into Fine Art
Q: Any practical advice for listeners on starting to create more intentional, vision-driven work?
Start by shooting a lot to gain inspiration and learn through failure, then focus on developing a personal vision rather than chasing validation, while continuously studying art to understand what resonates and why.
Forest Barkdoll-Weil - Turning a Vision into Fine Art
Q: What are some of your favorite apps or tools for planning a shoot and how do you use them differently?
He highlights PhotoPills, Photographers Ephemeris, Stellarium, and Windy as essential planning tools; Ephemeris for moon and sky timing, PhotoPills for AR planning, Stellarium for deep-sky details, Windy for weather modeling and forecasts.
Forest Barkdoll-Weil - Turning a Vision into Fine Art
Q: What's the biggest creative breakthrough or game-changing thing you've learned in your photography journey up to this point?
Forest emphasizes evolving as the core driver of growth—changing editing styles and shooting subjects over time to stay inspired, rather than clinging to a single method, which keeps his work fresh and engaging.
Samuel Markham - Is 10mm the New 16mm?!
Q: Any common ultra-wide mistakes you see, and how should listeners start using this lens more effectively?
He highlights tripod obsession as a common misstep, advises testing multiple compositions handheld, then returning to refine, and emphasizes getting very close to the foreground to fill the frame.
Samuel Markham - Is 10mm the New 16mm?!
Q: What makes an ultra-wide focal length fundamentally different than a standard wide angle, and how do you approach a scene differently when using it?
Samuel explains the differences in perspective, foreground emphasis, and leading lines with a 10mm, as well as practical steps for choosing composition and moving in close to maximize impact.
