The Photography Frame of Mind Matt Kloskowski

The 2024 solar eclipse is coming up next week. While there are thousands of places on the internet to find out about the gear needed and settings to use, very few give you practical tips on shooting the eclipse. So, this week Blake and Matt team up to bring you some not-so-typical thoughts and tips on getting ready for the big day. 

In this episode Matt is joined by renowned wildlife photographer and photo educator expert, Steve Perry (Back Country Gallery). Steve and Matt discuss the aspects of high frame rate and continuous shooting of wildlife interactions... or as some people call it "Spray and Pray". What is enough? What is too much? When do you stop and what do you do with all of those extra photos? Steve is an absolute expert in this area so don't miss this show. 

We all like to upgrade from time to time and unfortunately the longer you keep your old cameras and lenses the less valuable they become. In this episode Matt and Brian talk about some tips for selling your gear to get the most profit as well as avoid a scam. 

Matt and Blake explore the hypothetical scenario of what they would do differently if they could take up photography again with everything they know now. 

With frequent changes and updates to Lightroom (not Classic) it can get confusing as to what features it has or is missing. In this episode Matt Kloskowski and Brian Matiash talk about common misconceptions in Lightroom, that either come from old information or misinformation and try to clear the air so you know exactly what to expect. 

Photography can mean a lot of different things to different people. This week, we give some thoughts to whether or not photography is considered an art, or a craft - or both.
