Hey! I’m live in the studio this week and awkward as ever! If for no other reason, that’s a reason to watch the show.
We reviewed wildlife again this week and as always we had some great submissions.
No live show until December 15th! Chelsea and Tony will be away traveling in Thailand for their photo trip. But once they’re back, Kyle Wolfe will finally be a guest on our show reviewing your night photography. Super exciting.
We have a huge sale right now in our store, so go check out our bundles and give gifts to yourself or your friends.
Okay, we get into reviewing your photos here:
- foxy
- “you’re running around in the park with your kids and there will just be monsters there.”
- handsome tree frog
- hedgehog!
- great bison
- “ugh, not today Roger”
Time for chit-chat! Our favorite part of the show where you make funny, dumb, great comments and we highlight them.
- “I’m a certified photographer”
- y’all are real conflicted about what it means to be a pro
- Tony=Cliff Clavin
- pro brothers
What is this. Why. No.
Back into your photos:
- birds in Norway
- birds in flight
- dat Bambi
- peekaboo deer
- “oh my gosh, I feel like they’re telling jokes“
- fluffy bird
- juuuuust poop
- red kite and moon
- aggressive sharing
- cooper’s hawk
- incredible movement
- stunning mosquito
- my daughter loved this lizard
- fuzzy antlers
- dang, butterfly
- “Sharon! Get my keys!”
- rascally fox
Over to me for some of your questions:
- cold weather gloves good for photography? Mittens, or mittens with finger flaps.
- how to wrangle family for portraits during the holiday? Drink! Jk. Threaten, use ultimatums. Use the matriarch or patriarch of the family as the instigator. Use dumb jokes.
Let’s do a portfolio review! JMB Photography. Stunning artistic work. If you want to be hired for portraiture, you should have a more professional site focused on what’s marketable.
More questions from you, via me:
- what’s the most satisfying picture you’ve ever taken? For Chelsea it’s her bubble shot. For Tony’s it’s his osprey shot where it caught a fish. He’s vindictive.
- what’s your favorite compositional technique? Depends on the subject. Tony’s least favorite is the golden ratio.
Back to photos:
- that’s a good bee
- bird in the rain
- this hare is meme-worthy
- fancy cardinal mohawk
- OH MY GOD DINGOS
- dang, crow
Back to me for your q’s:
- how many plates do you have? Like 50?
- does shrinking an image size make it sharper? No.
Back to photos:
- why you make Chelsea sad, Erlend?
- Skeegulls!
- greedy bee
- elephants, hippo, bird “they poop at you, defiantly.”
- woodpecker
‘Nother question:
- How do you keep a tripod from sinking in the sand? Are you in quicksand? Get out.
Back to photos:
- kingfisher
- “it’s a wild derp”
- really flashy lizard
- this pink guy
How to explain AOL to children.
- European robin
More questions:
- any photography horror moments? Justin does. So does Tony. Don’t wear flip-flops.
More photos:

- hahahah those teeth
- this beauty
- “deer are so derpy”

Final questions from you all:
- how can I take pictures with a drone without looking like a drooling pervert? Don’t take pictures in windows. Wear a tie.
- 1DX Mark II as an underwater camera? Sure?
We breeze through a bunch of photos at the end, so just watch those. White squirrel!
Alright folks, that’s our show! We’ll be off for a few weeks, so we’ll see you again December 15th with Kyle Wolfe. Don’t forget!
