A nice anniversary trip to lovely, tourist infested rocky mountains.  Specifically Canmore Alberta.  We did sunsets, stars from the top of the mountain, froze our collective asses, then went for more.  Great hikes, and lastly a mountain sunrise.  Of course lots and lots of pictures.

Can we call ourselves photographers if we are not constantly creating?  Am I being a fraud for say that I'm a photographer, yet I haven't created anything worthy of sharing?  These are some questions that we try to answer during this episode.

Late night cinematic musings after watching a great movie "Downton Abbey", and how it differs from the show in cinematic terms.  There seem to be a lack of good cinematography in movies these days.

As artists some of us have some kind of an agenda or vision we would like to share with the world.  The question is do we need one?  Does any one care if we have one or not.  This is what we are trying to discover in this episode.

In the creative pursuit of photograph, we often fall pray to advertising of the latest greatest equipment that apparently will make photography easier, better, and more enjoyable. We often forget that in reality the camera itself does not really matter in chasing the creative. This is what we talk about in this episode.

Life can throw pretty nasty curve balls at you sometimes.  What better way to beat the blue, by having a date night, out in the country, watching a beautiful sunset.   Another "on the road again" episode during which we discuss things that make you forget about life for just few minutes, and recharge the creative juices again.

Labels exist for every art form, music, movies, painting and especially photography.  From wedding, portrait to street and landscape. The question is do we have to label ourselves as photographers.  One factor that we do label ourselves as photographers is marketing.  We distinguish ourselves from other photographers using labels.  This also can forces us into a box of sorts, which sometimes is hard to get out of.  We explore this in this show.

Today we talk about how to be creative when life steals all the time we have.

Another adventure in the wild rugged country.  Needed a break from everything so we took a drive to undiscovered by us Dry Island Buffalo Jump provincial park.  The weather cooperated and photographically we managed to relax and recharge.  Good times!
