When is a photograph not a photograph?

Send us Fan MailWelcome to the 150th episode of the podcast.  I was inspired at 3.00 am to talk about when a photograph isn't a photograph; when it becomes something more.  I've spoken about photojournalism and that type of photography has the power to influence global events. For most of us, that will not be a consideration, but being able to take good photographs, especially portraits, can have a positive impact on us, and people we haven't met yet.  People come in and out of our lives for various reasons, and we all have different phases in our lives. Sometimes it's great to look back on some of them and share them with people we care about.  If you're the type of photographer who leaves the camera hidden away until it's time to go on your annual vacation (or whatever it might be), you might be doing yourself a disservice. And, especially now that most of us carry smartphones around, there's no reason why you shouldn't be in a position to grab those 'moments' as they occur.  Here are the suggestions I have for you in the podcast:  Sign up and take the 14-day challenge. Or take one of my online courses.  Whatever you do, remember that some of your photographs might be telling your story in the future to someone who hasn't even been born yet! I hope you enjoy it.GrahamIt's time for another podcast...
