We wrap up the show answering a listener question from Nathan Watson who asked: I always enjoy your podcasts with Brad, and in a recent episode there was a bit of conversation about aches and pains and generally getting older. I could relate, but it also got me thinking about the inevitable end we all face in life, and what would happen with my photography. I thought it might make an interesting discussion topic for your podcast, not from a morbid perspective, but to encourage genuine thought about what our end of life wishes for our images would be given we put so much energy, passion and creativity into them. Over decades we accumulate galleries of many thousands of images. These images have value - sentimental value to our families, commercial value as art, or educational value that could support conservation causes. What would you and Brad want to happen to your image libraries? Do you want your family to have them, or would you prefer to leave them to a charitable conservation organization that could use them towards good causes? | |||

For example, I feel like macro photography of insects is more technical in a way that limits creativity. If you agree, does that influence your decision to engage/not engage with that genre of photography?

And if so, does that influence the subjects you want to shoot?” | |||
