The Richard Flint Photography Podcast Richard Flint Photography

In this podcast: Richard heads back to the RSS feeds as a way of getting new sources of photography news and content after stepping away from social media. Dusting off those old blog feeds and seeing what works. The main website gets a new portfolio gallery with Northumberland: Castles and Coast added to the site. The podcast links look at the legendary photojournalist Bert Hardy who has a retrospective exhibition on at The Photographers' Gallery in London until June 2nd.
