Episode #221 Does Black and White make my pictures look more pro? Plus IMPORTANT SHOW NEWS!

There’s news to announce today about the show’s future! We also talk about the march of technology and ask; "Does it de-skill photographers?" AI culling software - it’s here!

How should I behave when I’m at a wedding with a camera? What films inspire us? Designing a new website, how multi-genre should it be? We talk perfect laptops for editing and choose a camera combo for working in environmental portraiture, plus ask if Facebook is a better place for your new blog. Our guest is Charles Brooks, back for part 2 of our discussion about making the most extraordinary pictures inside musical instruments.
