#248 PHOTOWALK: INSTAGRAM, VULNERABILITY, CONFIDENCE & OTHER STORIES
A photo show that takes a camera and goes walking into the sounds of the countryside to make pictures and talk with you, hear from you and share with you, thoughts from photographers and anyone who just likes making pictures. This week we talk about Insta, share our vulnerability, seek travel adventures, try to cast aside imposter syndrome and hear from inspirational former guests about the quiet of photography, confidence, walking and Tibet. See the SHOW PAGE with pictures.
The show is supported by our wonderful Patrons and MPB.com. Quality used gear is a way of driving the circular economy and of course this makes it a sustainable way to shop too. And this is the kind of thing I like, because some companies treat plastic and unnecessary packaging as if it’s just normal. Not MPB. I bought a lens recently and it came with a note which said; 'Each year, MPB saves 1,200 football pitches' worth of plastic bubble wrap by using recycled packaging. It's a small change that adds up to a big difference.' Just another reason why I believe in driving the circular economy by buying used from MPB.com if you are in the States, Europe or the UK.
