Shutter Time Podcast

Welcome and Happy New 2019!  Here is to new adventures and possibly new resolutions.  In this episode I talk a little about new resolutions and a new twist to the old formula.  Hope you enjoy the show!

Dave has been doing a lot of things lately.  First he started new Adventures in Creativity podcast, which is a great show about following your heart in creative endeavours.  Not only photography, but everything that has to do with creativity.   Also Dave just acquired a medium format film camera, (big shout out to Dominick Chiuchiolo) and he has been exploring new adventures in film.     Since it’s almost the end of another year, do we have any secret plans for 2019? Listen to find out!   David Szweduik Photography   See you all next week!

Ramblings about students, and film vs digital.

Very interesting conversation with Antonio Rosario about very prolific photographer of old, Edward Weston.  Who's photographs seem to be all over the place, not following any specific genre.  Yet if you look carefully a theme will appear.  

In this episode I'm joined by Antonio Rosario, and we talk about William Eggleston.  Mr. Eggleston is a very polarizing photographer.  Not only he pioneered colored photography, he also seemed to throw all the rules of photography away.  So what makes his photography so successful, and hated at the same time.  We explore this and his photographs of mundane things.  

In this episode we are catching up with Olaf Sztaba, and his important projects, namely the Renatus Project, and MediumFormat.com online magazine.  

In this episode we collected Dave Szweduik, Dominick Chiuchiulo, Bryan Menear, and Antonio Rosario to give a farewell send off to Sid, who after 7 years and with a heavy heart, is leaving the show.

With help from Antonio Rosario, we ask why the old photography masters are still relevant today.

So getting lost while having a camera could be an exciting adventure.  We talk about our getting lost adventures and unfortunate sad event for Shutter Time.

Our featured photographer in this episode is none other than, our old friend David Szweduik.  Because of his latest project called (P)Haiku, we ask our selves how important is it to put titles on your images.  Do they change the way you view the image?

So what is the drive that feeds your passion for photography.  What is greatness and how do we achieve it? These are some questions that we ask during the show, and try to answer.

We are moving back in time again to Alfred Stieglitz.  The reason we wanted to feature this photographer, was because of his promoting other photographers in his magazine and galleries.  So the question we ask, how can we do this in this day and age, and why?  

Wow.  To handle this topic we had to invite two guests, Antonio Rosario and Mark Reierson.  How can photography affect social change.  Lewis Hine did, but now with the amount of photography it's even harder to do, or is it?  Big questions, big panel. 

Since a new full frame mirrorless Canon camera was announced, and there are rumours of Panasonic releasing a full frame camera we asked an important question, does Fujifilm need a full frame camera in it's line up to compete with the rest.  Also with the sensors having a much better dynamic range, is there a need for HDR photography anymore.   Featured photographer today is Trey Ratcliff.  

It's been 7 Years ago that this little show came to life. Now we have Photokina 2018 and a whole slew of new hardware.  Wow!  So we chat a little about this.

Featured Photographer: Dorothea Lange Working for FSA one of the first documentary female photographers working during the Great Depression, and documenting poor farmers during that time.  Mac and Antonio discuss how documentary photography can be, and is used in propaganda, either for good or for bad.

In this episode with touch a little on the new Nikon Z series cameras, and our new segment on Featured Photographer is Duane Michals, his work on series of images and projects sparked the conversation on projects and if projects are important to us as photographers and should we attempt doing them.
