Episode 85

from Beyond the Wild · host Ron Hayes

Yes, this episode is dedicated to grouse: the sage and the sharp-tails, and most importantly, spring. Sprinkled in and around the team's technical challenges in this episode, they also manage to get sidetracked discussing golf incidents, audio equipment for capturing wildlife sounds, a listener question about an upcoming bear photo adventure, latest rumours of technological advancements in photography gear, and their excitement about the upcoming PhotoX expo at pictureline where all three of our hosts will reconnect in person and interact with fellow photographers in talks and workshops. That’s a really long sentence, but I think you get the picture that there is a lot of fun jammed into this “quirky” episode. Chapters00:00 Introduction and Personal Anecdotes02:56 Golfing Experiences and Family Connections06:01 Grouse Adventures09:52 Audio and Equipment Lessons12:56 Upcoming Events and Gear News20:00 Technological Advancements in Photography23:52 Photo Expo and Workshop Details29:49 Exciting New Show Launch30:10 Listener Question: Preparing for McNeil River32:25 Photography Gear Recommendations for Remote Locations38:57 Weather Preparedness and Packing Essentials46:44 Field Experiences: Grouse Photography Adventures53:12 Client Experiences and Wildlife Encounters01:02:43 Wrap-Up and Future PlansThanks for tuning in to the Beyond the Wild Podcast.
