#461 Everything is a photograph: ONE LOVE

Today on the show, we recognise love as "Universal, regardless of identity and sexuality." Valérie Jardin's ONE LOVE is a new black-and-white photography project in America celebrating the LGBTQ+ community, aiming to inspire greater understanding and acceptance, sharing stories of love in its most authentic form.  Lydia Robinson's 'Queer Love' started as a passion project based around queer relationships and documenting couples in the UK. Through this series, Lydia aimed to show a more intimate and personal insight into LGBTQ+ relationships and how they are no different than cisgender heteronormative partnerships. She is recognised as an emerging talent by many publications, including Gay Times. Also, from the mailbag J. Reed Gidez is living my dream on Route 66, Shiraz Chanawala has started making 30,000 step walks finding the therapeutic process of photography both mentally and physically, our man in Finland, Pekka introduces us to Harry Potter-like wizardry to rescue lost digital files and a NEW assignment courtesy of the photojournalist Peter Dench lays in wait for you as we're now in December. Links to all guests and features will be on the showpage, my sincere thanks to MPB who sponsor this show and the Extra Milers without whom we wouldn't be walking each week. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.
