SHUTTER SYNC

Diana Dom: I’m listening to Photowalk podcast in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. It’s night-time here and I’m looking out the kitchen window, while doing the washing up. By the way, that is a Japanese Dogwood Tree I planted about 40 yrs ago.

John Grindle: Here is my shutter sync for this week: I was prepping some tarragon for our Sunday spring roast chicken. I will coat the chicken and potatoes in tarragon, lemon juice and rapeseed oil. Roast the chicken on top of the potatoes, once cooked, serve with spring greens and a glass of red :)

Paul Balaresque: Flap was exactly lifting his leg when you asked to take a photo while we were listening the Podcast. I took the photo on my phone and missed the moment! Then I remembered the phone was on Live mode. I checked the strip of photos and there it was... "The decisive moment".

Christopher Parsons: Sharing the photo I made last week when you called for us to take a photo. Taken from Toronto, looking towards old city hall.

Ian Reid: I usually carry my little Sony RX100 V3 in my back pocket for my morning walks. The call for a Shutter Sync today found me in the local park at sunrise.
I have to say I found Christopher Payne's photos of derelict buildings absolutely captivating.

Jeff Smeraldo: Here is my photo of my walking partner Pepper. She and I would walk and listen to the show. Sadly Pepper has reached a point in her life where she cannot walk anymore and I took this during episode 434 as we were listening to the show and sitting at home.

Phil Braithwaite: I was listening in Friday morning as I usually do at my workbench. I cycle the 15km to work most days which for the most part takes me along the Ostend to Bruges canal so if the conditions are right I can snatch a sketchbooker or two on the journey there and back plus it’s just a boost for my mental heath. I happened to have my camera next to me on my work bench in its protective pouch so I quickly got it out and at your command took this of some screws on my bench used for assembling kitchen drawers, in the most part for luxury residences here on the Belgian coast (mostly second homes for people who have spent their working lives on the pinstripe express).

James Park: Doing some gardening while listening to episode 434, thought I’d take part in the 3,2,1 go challenge.

Colin Mayer: 6:04 pm and I'm driving home from work listening to the podcast... and following instructions.

Darshan Nohner: I am walking down the steps to my dock on the Mississippi River in Minnesota USA. Many of my photo walks take place on my kayak recording life on the river.

Matthies Wesche: I always thought there might be a shot here with all the lines leading down the road, but I don't think this is it. Yet it is what I was able to come up while waiting for the bus to take me to work. Went for black and white and a bit of a film look with the Snapseed app as this phone's camera is made to survive on the construction site.

From 'Cleaner Image': I was in my car on the way home from work.

From PhotoForum NZ: Here - setting out on my dog walk, in a small town with a big sky at the bottom of the world. Temperature -2, heading into winter. Brisk, but clear, still, clean blue air. The sun still rising in the east, moon going down in the west. Mustn’t grumble.

Marilyn Davies: This image is the one I snapped with my phone (stopped the car of course) when I was listening to the show. I most often listen to it when I’m driving.
This image was taken around the corner from my home.

Greg Picone: Image capture 8:27pm, as I listen to the podcast #434, in the Florida room.

Richard Oldroyd: I thought I'd win some wife points and clean the carpet in the front room whilst listening to the show. At the point I'm only half way through. PS my guess on the golf ball dimples was 132.

André Grote: I heard the podcast on Friday morning. I was on my weekly drive to pick my youngest son up from school. He is visually impaired and the school is about 160 km from where we live. So I drive always on fridays to pick him up and bring him back on sundays. So plenty of time to listen to my favourite podcast. Keep up the good work.

Michael Lachowski: Kitchen window, Athens, Georgia, USA.
