Today I want to talk about photography in terms of reality, art, politics and Susan Sontag. Sontag was a writer and critic who wrote a lot about culture and photography during the 1970s.

We worry too much about tech specs and reviews when shopping for a camera. You're not trying to buy the best camera ever made, you're looking for the best camera to suit YOU. My advice is always the same... buy the camera you love.

A Very Long Chat About Photography2026 July 30
EP 118

This podcast episode is an audio verison of my recent YouTube video, but it definitely works just as audio. It was recorded as a very long chat to help beginners find a path forward with photography.

What happens when you finally get off subscription pricing? What is life like in a post-Adobe world?

We're hanging onto the possibility of going back to our old edits, instead of looking forward to new possibilities.

Why was I looking to get out and walk a little bit, make some friends, and find some community? When I started looking, the cupboard was bare, except for one group on the far reaches of Melbourne's suburbs. Where have all the other photo walks gone?
