#261 PHOTOWALK: AN ACCIDENT, A PHOTO LOVE AFFAIR AND A DOG CALLED MEG
We're in wonderful woodland for the only weekly Photowalk in podcastsphere. Your letters and messages whilst we make pictures together, plus inspirational thoughts from past guests. This week embracing fear in your picture making, street rage, finding film again, Insta-frustration, rural UrbEX, story-exhaustion, beautiful mailruns, wrong eyed shooting and finding physical strength to photograph once more. Special guest Simon Baxter invites us to explore our local woodland to find photographic peace and beauty.
We’re supported by our friends at MPB.com the number one platform in the UK, US and Europe (with bases in Brighton, Brooklyn and Berlin) when it comes to buying, trading or selling quality used kit online. It’s true that a picture, a moment can CHANGE the way we feel. It can change how we see ourselves. It can change our understanding and change the rules. It can even provoke and change history. MPB.com puts photo and video kit into more hands, more sustainably, helping you to change kit to tell YOUR stories. Every month, visual storytellers (like us) sell more than 20,000 cameras and lenses to MPB, which means that YOU can choose used and get affordable access to kit that doesn’t cost the earth and in some cases never dreamt you’d own. So, sell the kit you’re not using, trade it in for the kit you need to create. Buy used, spend less and get more.
