Thank you very much for another great Focus Ring Episode.
I really enjoyed listening to this episode. I especially liked part about the influence of photography (or visual experience in general) on other forms of art and vice vera.
Similar in theme is a photoblog I have been following for quite a while by photographer Michael David Murphy. He shows an amazing talent in poetics with his „photoblog without photographs“ Unphotographable. If you liked the part from the Great Gatsby quoted in the show, you should definately check out this website.
Cheers from Germany and I hope to hear another episode not too far into the future.

Enjoyed your exchange and, especially, discussion of workflows and Jeff’s reference to _Great Gatsby_. As usual, he set me to thinking about things I wouldn’t normally think about. It’s not all about the camera, is it?
Check out another very well done project where Matthew Boyle, a Scotsman, challenged himself to do 100 Portraits. He only new the first subject and then each subject recommended the next. Especially good because Matthew does a reflective piece after every 5 portrait sessions: http://100portraits.net/.

Regarding you keywording and tagging problems. Not sure if this helps you in any way, but it helped me a lot when I started to categorize and tag my photos.
I am just asking me “What will I type in the search box if I want to find this photo?” Normally that is the location and one main subject of the photo, perhaps a third key tag like an applied technique or something else. You may find other relevant keywords. But I think this is _the_ way to do keywording.

Just found this podcast. Very interesting discussion. Also reassuring to know that professionals also struggle with issues of creativity and not repeating the same work over and over.

6 months between shows is a bad sign for this group. Such a shame because the discussions can be so interesting with all the different viewpoints. Shame that this show has fallen by the wayside

Found these podcasts late in 2008 and downloaded and listened to them all. Great shows one and all, love the discussions, found them interesting, useful and very entertaining. Especially love the length of them, anything from an hour to an hour and a half. By far and away the best podcasts on the web.
A great pity that they seem to have fallen by the wayside. Please bring them back.
