You jerks got an extra show this week because YouTube is the worst!
We reviewed your black and white shots again this week, and we have a new way to submit photos! Straight to Dropbox, no password and we got a flood of images. We also streamed live in 4k this week for the first time!
In a mere 2 days, we’ll have another live show on landscapes.
Chelsea mentioned that I like “ranchos” and if you don’t know what those are, ask me about it. I will extol the virtues of my new favorite show to you.

Over to me for some questions:
- why does lens compression happen? It’s because of the angle of view. I can’t type out this explanation for you.
- opinions on the new digital medium format system? Tony’s excited to see something new, but wants to give it time to develop fully. Also medium format files are huge.

Over to me for some more questions:

- any trouble traveling with gear? Flying home into Boston once, but no, nothing really.
- what is the one thing you wish you knew when you started shooting? That the most important factor of your photograph is the subject, and the art. To shoot what you love, not what you think you should shoot.
