Great podcast

Thanks Ray for providing a great photography podcast dedicated to Birds and Wildlife. I have learned so many valuable tips from the podcast when I get in the field many of the subjects talked about in the podcast come to mind. This inspired me to think out of the box and change things up. Improving my photography skills vastly. Thank you Ray for sharing not only your experience and knowledge but that of your guests. Keep up the great work!!

Ray is a natural interviewer

I enjoy this podcast and often hold on to new episodes for long drives or long flights so I have something to look forward to. Ray has an ease to his interviews. I enjoy his guest interviews as they are interesting and flow well. As a fellow bird photographer the topics are of course my fav and I’ve leaned a lot and feel a sense of comradery when listening to this podcast.
