    Film Simulations - Nothing to Lose, Everything to Gain - TDS Photo Podcast

    Film Simulations - Nothing to Lose, Everything to Gain - TDS Photo Podcast

    Your first thought may be, "Why do I care about film simulations?" And that's fair if what you are after is the standard Jpeg processing included with your camera. But since electronic viewfinders can present a view of the world with our settings applied, film simulations can lead the way to more creative photography. I will explain more in the first story of this week's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

    Is Something Really Wrong, or Is It Me? Plus Photomator 3.1 - TDS Photography Podcast

    Is Something Really Wrong, or Is It Me? Plus Photomator 3.1 - TDS Photography Podcast

    Even people who use electronics all the time can be baffled by them. You turn it on, get a warning light, and wonder, "Is something really wrong, or is it me?" It could go either way. And it's hard not to jump to conclusions. I've had a rash of these experiences lately. And I'll share a couple of them with you, if for no other reason, to demonstrate that we all fall into this trap. I hope you enjoy the show.

    How Do I Pick My Best Shot? (And the New Fujifilm X100VI) - TDS Photo Podcast

    How Do I Pick My Best Shot? (And the New Fujifilm X100VI) - TDS Photo Podcast

    Breaking news! The New Fujifilm X100VI. And, photographers tend to be too hard on themselves, or way too generous when evaluating their pictures. But there's a middle ground. And to reach it, we need to honestly answer a few basic questions during the review process. In the first segment of today's TDS Photography Podcast, I'll let you know what those are, and how they can help you make better choices when selecting your images. Then we take you to Tokyo for the Fujifilm X-Summit. I hope you enjoy the show.

    The Temptation of Cheap Third Party Lenses - TDS Photography Podcast

    The Temptation of Cheap Third Party Lenses - TDS Photography Podcast

    It's hard to resist the siren call of super-affordable Chinese-made optics. For the price of a polarizer, we can fill gaps in our lens library that we might not otherwise be able to afford. But even at a modest price, do these accessories provide the quality we need for our work? The answer is "yes," and "no." Find out why on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

    Documenting What Makes You, You - TDS Photography Podcast

    Documenting What Makes You, You - TDS Photography Podcast

    We have many more dimensions than most folks realize. Yes, in this community, we know each other for our photography. But each of us has far more going on than taking pictures. And we can use that skill to document - and share if we wish - the other areas of our life. Combining our love for photography with the things we enjoy. I will discuss one such example regarding me on this week's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

Still The Best in 2023

Derrick publishes a very informative and upbeat podcast every Tuesday - just like clockwork. He’s a professional photographer and educator rolled into one. I became a Patreon supporter to help Derrick continue to contribute fresh ideas everything week. Highly recommended.

Inspiring Photography and Technology Podcasts That Make Sense

Although we’ve never met, It seems like Derrick is the good neighbor you look forward to chatting with (by way of his podcasts). Every week he transports us to a place he’s been scouting, an event he’s been supporting, or to the office in his studio. No matter where he is, be assured the delivery of his words will have you right there with him.
Derrick has a good sense what will interest his listeners. I hope you’ll stop by for some inspiration from the Digital Story.
