While preparing for today’s podcast (Episode #100), I listened to the first-ever Understanding Photography podcast (Episode #1), that I did with Peggy Farren just about two years ago. You can view that on YouTube here<\/a>. It was great fun watching and listening. I had a bit more hair then and I looked a heck of a lot younger. That brings to mind a good tip for healthy living: stay the heck out of the operating room! Anesthesia (and the accompanying antibiotics) really do a job on us as we age. <\/p>\n In any case, if you would like to get to know me a lot better, click on the link above and give it a listen while you are working on some bird photos. If I ever want to do my autobiography, I can simply have episode #1 transcribed! It is very personal …<\/p>\n It is 10:40am and I am on the way to Naples, FL to do the 100th Understanding Photography podcast at 4pm today with the lovely and irrepressibly happy Peggy Farren. Click here<\/a> to view and listen to the podcast. There should be a way for you to ask questions online but I will be darned if I can figure it out. \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n On the podcast we will be talking in depth about my switch from Canon to Nikon, the pros and cons of each system for bird photographers, the best tripod head for bird photography, the most common mistakes made by bird photographers, and my getting fired by Canon as an Explorer of Light. And lots more. <\/p>\n I just heard from Peggy: we will be doing a section of the podcast on advanced sharpness techniques. This will include a live demonstration with me standing behind my Induro<\/a> GIT 304L\/Mongoose M3.6<\/a>-mounted Nikon 600mm lens. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Stuff <\/p>\n While preparing for today’s podcast (Episode #100), I listened to the first-ever Understanding Photography podcast (Episode #1), that I did with Peggy Farren just about two years ago.
