Claude Fiddler - Inside the High Sierra via Large Format Film

Welcome to episode 229 of the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen podcast!

This week on the podcast I was joined by Claude Fiddler.

Claude spent much of his life deeply exploring and photographing the High Sierra of California after being inspired by the likes of Galen Rowell and Ansel Adams. Most of Claude's images were created using a large format film camera in extremely remote locations in the Sierra wilderness.

We discuss:

  • The Single Powerful Image vs. a series of images,
  • Photographing experience while presenting our work as art,
  • Learning on large-format cameras vs. digital,
  • The importance of studying the work of the giants that came before us,
  • Claude's new book, "Inside the High Sierra."

Inside the High Sierra is Claude Fiddler’s third fine art monograph describing the mood and lighting of the High Sierra. The book includes 50 photographs from 35 years of explorations into the Range of Light. With a foreword from Tom Hornbein and essays from Michael Cohen, Laurel Fiddler, Peter Croft, and Dick Dorworth, along with Fiddler’s descriptions of the experiences of each picture, this book joins the classic works of art from the Sierra Nevada. Also, each essay is graced with a pen and ink drawing from the artist Valerie Cohen.

The book is hardbound, printed on 200gsm archival paper, and there will only be 1,000 copies Printed. 100 copies will be slip-cased in a custom built wood box milled from reclaimed Western White pine and accompanied with an 8x10-inch limited edition print. These prints will only be sold with the book.

James Rodewald - Inspiration | Our Nemesis | Meditation

Welcome to episode 228 of the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen podcast!

This week on the podcast I was joined by James Rodewald.

James is a photographer and science teacher residing in the State of New York. He started his photographic journey back in the early 1980s with a 35-mm film camera. Although his portfolio of film and digital work spans many years, one can see a few common themes emerge. One of those central themes is a long-term attempt to capture scenes of the natural world seemingly untouched by humanity: nature in its natural state.

We discuss:

  • Balancing art with a full-time career and parenthood
  • Using meditation to help channel creativity on a busy schedule
  • Finding ongoing inspiration in local subjects
  • Finding ongoing inspiration while returning to frequented locations and or familiar subjects

NFTs and Landscape Photography - A Panel Discussion

Welcome to episode 227 of the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen podcast!

This week on the podcast I was joined by Brynn Schmidt, Alex Noriega, and Alex Nail to talk about the most controversial and divisive topics in the landscape and nature photography community at the present moment - NFTs.

In today's episode, you can expect to hear four adults have a very respectful and cordial conversation and debate about NFTs which has been sorely lacking from social media as of late.

You can also expect to learn quite a bit and gain some perspectives, no matter what side of the argument you find yourself, or perhaps gain a better understanding if you don't find yourself on one side at all.

We discuss:

  • What are NFTs and how do they and their marketplaces work?
  • The various positives and negatives of NFTs,
  • The newly formed community of NFT photographers on Twitter,

Mental Health and Landscape Photography - A Panel Discussion

Welcome to episode 216 of F-Stop Collaborate and Listen!

This week I hosted a special panel conversation on mental health and landscape photography with my guests Brian Rueb, Bryan Pezman, and Len Metcalf.

In 2019, there were an estimated 51.5 million adults aged 18 or older in the United States suffering from mental illness. This number represents 21% of all U.S. adults. The statistics for mental illness are quite staggering; however, it also means that if you are suffering that you are not alone. As artists and photographers, there is a lot that can be said for using art as a means for coping with mental illness and expressing our experiences with it. In this podcast episode, we explore this topic deeply and examine the impacts of mental illness on us, photographic artists.

Bryan, Len, Brian, and I discuss mental health issues in landscape photography this week, including:

  • Each of their personal struggles with mental health and how it has impacted their photographic careers.
  • How landscape photography has helped them manager their mental health.
  • Using photography to help others suffering with mental health issues.
  • Spotting the line between therapeutic processing of mental health through our artwork and darker more dangerous territory.
  • Social media's impact on our mental health as landscape photographers.
  • Authentic connections with the natural world and how they can impact our mental health.
  • How the financial side of photography impacts our connection with photography and our mental health.
  • How expectations and the how in our pursuit of photography can impact our mental health.
  • And lots more.

Over on Patreon this week, we discuss the challenges in showing grace and tolerance for those suffering with mental health who behave in outwardly aggressive and mean ways towards the photographic community.

Anna Morgan - Truth, Experience, and Beauty in Landscape Photography

Welcome to episode 199 of F-Stop Collaborate and Listen!

This week on the podcast, I had a wonderful conversation with a landscape photographer living in Vancouver, British Columbia, Anna Morgan.

Anna grew up in the United Kingdom but later relocated to Vancouver, BC to practice veterinary medicine. She recently sold her veterinary practice to pursue a Master's Degree and start a family. Through her Master's Degree, she decided to write her thesis on quite a fascinating topic: The Role of Photography and the Photographer in Conservation. The frameworks by which Anna used to frame her thesis have far-reaching application to understanding photographers, photography, and how we can think about each from varied perspectives.

Anna and I discuss some interesting topics this week, including:

  • Content-driven themes including truth, experience, and beauty, and how these themes interplay with situated knowledge including emotions, interests, meanings, attitudes, beliefs, and values,
  • How misrepresentation of truth in photography could hinder conservation efforts (and other impacts of misrepresentation),
  • The importance of representation of women in photography and art and the roles women can play in addressing the climate crisis and other environmental issues,
  • How Anna's thesis has helped me to understand and conceptualize how and why various photographers present their artwork the way they do in regards to digital manipulation,
  • And lots more!

Over on Patreon this week, Anna and I discuss the practice of Slow and Contemplative Photography and how it connects curiosity, creativity, and care for the environment.
