Have you ever found yourself in a position where you wake up and find you’re doing the same thing today that you did yesterday? Is your creativity stale? Okay, listen up. On this podcast I have no references, other than myself. Here I am really talking myself into doing something I haven’t done very much of by speaking about how to “turn yourself on” to photography again.
These techniques I mention are guaranteed to work on you at a level that is unexpected, but will definitely produce results to remake you into a different person. I dare you to listen to this podcast and not feel re-energized and ready to conquer new realms.

“Photography podcast #72 discusses how to use exposure compensation. It’s a fairly simple concept that just means deviating away from (or compensating against) the camera meter’s recommended exposure to make the image brighter or darker. We also talk about which camera modes you’ll want to use exposure compensation with, and I discuss why program mode sucks and should be avoided.” — Photography.ca

“It’s time to start using the pictures we took before 1999. Many of us have two lives as photographers: The “slide and negative days” prior to 2000, and the digital age that followed. But what about all of those great images we captured prior to the digital age?” — Derrick Story

“In a first for PhotoLegal, on the last episode of the current series, No. 7 we enjoyed the company of a returning guest, Kate Day from the Daily Telegraph who joined us to answer your questions.

That’s providing we’re not in jail, although Kate has agreed to post bail!” — PhotoLegal [UK]
