Although the podcasts do look at the technical elements of photography from time to time, the processes of image-making, the photography itself, and the photographers who make those fantastic images are the main focus of the podcast. The focus is on the image, the process of taking photographs, and not the equipment used.

- 35 years or more after seeing it as a tennage photographer just starting to take images, I've rewatched the BBC Arena documentary 'Mentioned in Dispatches' about Vietnam war photographer Tim Page. I thought I'd capture some brief thoughts about Tim's images, his influence on my photography and how the documentary looks now.
- In the podcast: A catchup about what's been happening and the plans of the podcast, photobooks etc, and in the links, I take a look at one of my early heroes Vietnam war photographer Tim Page who died in August 2022. Tim had a huge influence on me as a young photographer. The 'Mentioned in Dispatches' BBC documentary especially sparked my interest in photojournalism. Links mentioned in the podcast Time Page's obituary in The Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/sep/01/tim-page-obituary Tim Page: the Vietnam war photographer’s career in pictures https://www.theguardian.com/media/gallery/2022/aug/24/tim-page-the-vietnam-war-photographers-career-in-pictures Tim Page 'Mentioned in Dispatches' – BBC Arena -1979 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JPT_fKHOzw

- A bit of a switch around this month due to the delay in getting the September podcast recorded. September's Scotland trip will now be talked about in next month's podcast complete with a recording originally made for a bonus Scotland podcast. I'll also cover recent website news in that podcast too. In this podcast, however, I talk about the move to new podcast hosting that should improve the podcast no end. Better distribution, links in the show notes, and more! Some great photo links are thrown in at the end from the BBC In Pictures page including images of Joy […]
