PhotoNetCast #92 – Doing Your Own Thing

In this episode we have a good conversation on how to do your own thing in photography and defining your photographic style.

Defining your photographic style

 

In this episode Antonio Marques, Sean Galbraith, Bob Lussier and Scott Kivowitz engage in a discussion about defining style in photography, how to develop one and finding inspiration from other photographic works and bodies of work to help photographers learn while introducing individuality into their work. What do you think? Does photographic style still exist?

In the news, the megapixel wars rages on with the new Canon 5DS and 5DSR, Nikon releases a super niche D810a, Scott introduces a perfect Nikon mirrorless full frame and the darkroom comes to the iPhone.

No time for listener questions, so we’ll have a few more on the next episode.

For now, enjoy the show…

PhotoNetCast #90 – Looking back, looking forward

Besides a good discussion on the latest news topics, we look back at the ending year and share some of what’s coming in 2015.

We hope you had a great Christmas together with your loved ones (and that Santa has been generous with the photographic treats).

For the last episode of the year, we decided to have a quick look into the past year, from our photography ventures and also from PhotoNetCast’s perspective. At the same time, we briefly discuss what we have planned for 2015, and what we expect to change during the year.

We also address some of the news topics: the appearance of a new file format that wants to take JPEG head on; Flickr backtracks on the whole Creative Commons for Wall Art thing; Fuji firmware updates add features for X-T1, X-E2, X-E1, and X-Pro1, Metz, a leading provider of lights just a few years back, files for insolvency; a new service that promises centralising all your social media photo uploads; Time UK being naughty with rights grabs; and lastly a Toronto Gallery Buys the Entire Collection of Vivian Maier Negatives Owned by Jeffrey Goldstein.

After all this, the show was just getting too long so we’ve split it in two, with Listener Questions and Selected from the Web coming up on a separate episode, just after the New Year.

 

 

Hope you enjoy the show and, as always, feedback and suggestions are very much appreciated.

From all of us at PhotoNetCast, we wish you a great entry into 2015.
