This week Bill tells all about his trip to Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks while Jeffery gives him a hard time about it. Do you need to leave where you are to see where you’ve been? And of course it’s fitting that Ansel Adams is our photographer of the week.
This week is all about who deserves to get paid, whether craft has inherent value, and why Bill would like to take more than one photograph with an iPhone even with a purple fringed lens flare. Amateur savant Vivian Meier is our photographer of the week.

Show Notes
Lost Memories (Ferracci created the film as an entry to a competition in Paris that asked filmmakers to imagine what the future will be like. It was shot using a Canon 5D Mark II. Although writing, filming, and editing the footage took only about a day, adding in all the visual effects took Ferracci half a year to complete.): http://www.doobybrain.com/2012/09/18/lost-memories-by-francois-ferracci/
Bill is nervous for the first time in a while and it’s not about the latest crop of cameras coming out at Photokina. Also, your portfolio site might just suck, but Jeffery’s diatribe on the subject might just help. All this plus the century old amazing work of Karl Blossfeldt on this week’s On Taking Pictures.
