Episode #214 Celebrating solitude and street work in your own town

Are professional European photography gigs over for the Brits? Kev’s gotten rid of his bed bugs, we’re still guessing what an X-H2 may bring, we talk camera ergonomics including our feelings about the X100V, the ‘right time’ for using flash, embracing street photography in your own town, the kit you bought you wished you hadn’t and celebrate not having to calibrate lenses.

The book of the week is Parker J. Pfister’s Of Solitude and we revisit the archive to hear from Shotkit’s Mark Condon.

Book Review

of Solitude by Parker J. Pfister

Following the path of solitude I have experienced freedom and strength, but also encountering depression and loneliness along the way. I have tamed a beast called anxiety and climbed from a pit of guilt.

This book is a conversation between the duality of solitude that can be both salvation and scourge, deliverance and death, and healing and harmful. It wields a mighty double-edged sword.

Photography is my first language. These pictures translate as my journey; the poems as my journal.
