Kai Hornung, an internationally awarded landscape photographer based in Germany, is known for his emotionally rich imagery and signature sense of calm. Blending technical precision with a deep personal vision, Kai's “Finding Small” philosophy encourages a mindful approach to photography—focusing on overlooked details and subtle visual narratives. His work has been featured in National Geographic, Condé Nast Traveller, and other leading publications, earning him widespread recognition in the landscape photography world.   Originally trained in human resources, Kai picked up his first DSLR in 2008 and has since built a life rooted in artistic expression. He discusses the emotional motivation behind his images, the importance of authenticity, and how he strives to evoke a sense of presence in each frame. Beyond the field, Kai shares candid thoughts on the challenges of pricing work, navigating professional photography as a career, and staying true to one's creative voice. His experiences as an author, mentor, and speaker offer further perspective on building a meaningful and sustainable practice in a fast-changing industry.   I hope you enjoy the show.

The case over Google's monopoly is over, and now we wait to see what the penalties might be. Nebraska wants to make social media less addictive for kids with a new law. Germany might tax Facebook and Google more. Microsoft's carbon footprint continues to rise. I did not expect AI slop to be SO popular that now real people are trying to copy AI.

Astrophiz 215: Dr Ian Musgrave's June SkyGuide Summary: Mars close to thin crescent moon. Occultation of Antares behind the moon in the early evening sky. The moon comes close to some of the bright planets. … and Mars is close to the moon again at the end of the month. Moon Phases: June 3 ~ 1st Quarter Moon, and another time to catch the ‘Lunar X' late in the night, about 11pm for Australian Eastern states. 10:30 for central states and 9pm in the West. Lunar X Tip: take an image each 1/2 hour from moonrise. June 7 ~ Apogee, furthest from earth June 11 ~ Full Moon June 19 ~ Last Quarter Moon ~ ideal for stargazing June 23 ~ Perigee, closest to earth June 25 ~ New Moon ~ ideal for stargazing June 21 ~ Solstice: shortest day in Southern Hemisphere. longest day in Northern Hemisphere Evening Skies: Jupiter is lost into the twilight Mercury returns to evening skies mid-month, on the 27th it's 3°from the moon an hour after sunset, and will continue to be excellent until mid-July. Mars is low in the NW evening skies, and is still readily visible T Coronae Borealis is visible in late evening skies and still has not ‘Gone Nova' so the challenge is still … to capture a Nova before and after it blows! This Nova iswell ‘overdue' so all eyes are on it! Tuesday 10 June ~ The Occultation of Antares by the Moon is easily seen in binoculars and telescopes (for times, check Ian's Astroblogger website) Also June is a great opportunity to see The Dark Emu in the south, the Southern Cross and the magnificent globular cluster Omega Centauri is also at it's highest in the south. Morning Skies: Venus is furthest from the sun on 1 June, and is a half-moon shape in telescopes, and beside the crescent moon on 22 June Saturn is climbing higher in the morning sky, Scorpius is a feature in the dark morning sky in the east Saggitarius and the Heart of the Milky Way are also rising, a good opportunity to catch the Triffid and Lagoon nebulas in Saggitarius. Ian's 'Tangent' Ian discusses long-lived aspects of Indigenous astronomy like The Eagle, Stingray and Dark Emu, and how Western constellation names have changed over time. eg Argo was declared obsolete in 1930. Ian's Astrophotography Challenges: 1. Capture The Occultation of Antares on June 10th (almost full moon) 2. Then on a dark night with no moon, have a go at The Dark Emu, with your mobile phone/DSLR/camera, conveniently at 8pm in the south near Scorpius, the Pointers and the Southern Cross. Tips: Use your device's highest ISO (ASA) Under urban skies, take 10 x1second exposures, and stack them using a free stacking program or app. Under dark skies, you can take longer exposures If stacking in RAW, do a ‘dark frame' subtraction If stacking in JPEG, don't use dark frame subtraction.

Instagram isn't just for square photos anymore You can already post images with a rectangular aspect ratio of 4:5, but with 3:4, your photo won't be cropped at the ends. You can still post a square too. My theory is that this is in response to the resurgence of people taking photos on actual cameras again. The tourists in NYC seems to love a dedicated camera - and I don't mean a DSLR, I mean an old school 'digital camera' point and shoot style. It's a little sad – one of the things that made Instagram special was that it forced creativity into a square. Same as with Twitter – 140 characters made things fun. Your work Gmail will now start automatically summarizing emails Google's Gemini investment is coming to your inbox if you like it or not. Gmail now creates summaries automatically for complex threads, and they'll appear above the emails themselves. These are already available but require you to request it manually. The update will just be for mobile, and it may take up to two weeks before you see the feature. Apple's Operating Systems are being re-numbered According to Bloomberg, the iOS16, or iPadOS3 will all align under the year of release. So: iPadOS 26, macOS 26, watchOS 26, tvOS 26, and visionOS 26.

Ten years ago, recognising the narrow horizons of his sales job, Big Event Media founder Vincent Roazzi Jr started exploring New York City through the lens of a new camera, going on to take gig pictures for music events startup Sofar Sounds.   Accepting an offer to serve as photographer for a friend's project in Bhutan, Vincent found his chops, or his shots, on that eastern edge of the Himalayas. So much so that, returning to the States some 12 months later, he launched Big Event Media.   Talking from the company's headquarters in Austin, Texas, this episode sees Vincent detailing the modern world of professional photography, how he and his team shoot conference/trade show/live event pictures and videos beyond the reach of the madding iPhoners.   With questions from host James Dickson, Vincent discusses the DSLR generation, how camera phones mean everyone knows more about photography, and how understanding, and getting, the angles is the great separator.   An engaging interviewee, Vincent gives his take on creativity, providing for clients' social media alongside traditional picture/video wants, changes in the editing process, match cuts, turnaround times, meaningful content, Billy on the Street-style, and much more.      To keep up to date with all the news, subscribe for free here.

I'm a retired attorney who fell into photography in 2010 when my wife insisted we go to Africa, and my trusty point-and-shoot just wouldn't cut it. I bought a DSLR, read the manual on the 20-hour flight, and instantly became the “expert” among travelers who hadn't cracked theirs open. I'm open to photographing anything, switching subjects whenever I feel stuck. My wife Louann, also a retired attorney, started by snapping photos of her beloved garden with my old camera and soon became both muse and critic. We push each other to see the world differently, and sharing this passion together has made the journey all the more rewarding.

Send us a textAnna Tyrie shares the brutal truth about building YouTube channels that actually make money. Forget what the gurus tell you - Anna's been there, done that, and learned the hard way what really works.Her Scouse accent video blew up, but brought in all the wrong people. Meanwhile, her simple singing warmups with zero fancy intros quietly built a business without her even trying.In this conversation, Anna opens up about the YouTube mistakes that nearly derailed her business, why videos often sit dead for 100-300 days before suddenly taking off, and why she's ditched her expensive DSLR for an iPhone and a simple lapel mic.You'll hear why audio quality matters more than anything else (seriously, viewers will tolerate bad video but HATE bad audio), her method for organizing content into "buckets" instead of chasing trends, and the simple "Francesca test" she uses for every video idea.If you're tired of posting videos that get views but zero actual business results, this might be the most important YouTube strategy conversation you'll hear this year.

There's a court case pushing back against the FCC dropping a popular rule against robocalls. The former director of a rural broadband plan speaks out against satellite solutions, while the EU looks to replace Starlink in Ukraine. Meta has succeeded in halting the promotion of a book written by a former employee, but that seems to be more advertising FOR the book. A court case sets precedent that AI generated content can not claim fair use if the AI is trained on conpyrighted material. Google showed off the Play Games on PC at GDC, and there's more rumbling AGAIN about a desktop mode coming to Android 16, or 17, or maybe 18...

I sometimes wonder, while writing these guest photographer posts, how many listeners or viewers actually read them. The truth is it doesn't matter to me, I write them for myself more than anyone else, and I find that trying to put someone's talent into written words really helps me distill my thoughts about their work. Take today's guest, Melody Mellinger, for example... I think my first introduction to Melody's work was back in February of 2020, for Episode 4 of the monthly Behind the Shot Critique shows I used to do with Don Komarechka - damn I miss doing those. After that, I think Melody must have had an image in at least 7 of the critique shows. What she doesn't know is that in every critique show, 28 in all, I always tried to have a mix of shots, so that there would be a few that we might have a lot to contribute to, and others that could work as a reference point, a baseline for what a great shot looks like. Her images were part of that later category. One image I distinctly remember was in critique show 5. It was called Open Wide, and it is a magnificent shot. My first thought was that I wouldn't have anything to say about it - yeah, it's that good - but when I brought it on screen during the show a few things came to mind, and Melody actually went and redid the image with our suggestions. Here's the BEFORE and AFTER for you. Since those first introductions to Melody's work I have become such a fan. What I find fascinating is that Melody's adventures in nature photography didn't begin until 2015, with her first DSLR, a Canon Rebel T6i. What led her to bird photography? Her children. She knew they were going to get tired of being models much faster than she was going to master that Canon, so she moved on to flowers and butterflies, before moving on again to the challenge of backyard songbirds. Since 2022 she has used a Canon 5D Mark IV, and for her bird photography she pairs it with a 100-400mm and a 1.4x extender. Yes, you read that right... a DSLR, not some new mirrorless body, and the shots she is making with it will blow your mind. Next time you think you need new gear, go browse Melody's Instagram. You'll quickly realize that you probably don't, and you can thank her for saving you money. Back in January, Melody posted that she'd won something from FStoppers, and the shot that was featured in their Best Images of 2024 Critique show stopped me in my tracks. I mean, wow... just wow. I knew right then I needed to get her on the show. Join nature and wildlife photographer Melody Mellinger and me as we discuss her amazing bird photography, and as we take a deep dive into the shot that she had featured in the FStoppers Best Images of 2024 Contest.

In episode 654, Megan chats with Ashley Freeman about professional food styling, including how to embrace ‘mess' and other key elements that make food images visually appealing and unique. Ashley Strickland Freeman is the creator of the blog Little Black Skillet. Just like a "Little Black Dress," she strives to create approachable, everyday recipes her audience can trust and turn to again and again. With over 19 years of experience as a food stylist, cookbook author, recipe developer and tester, and culinary producer (culinary content creator for short), Ashley offers a unique perspective having worked on all sides of culinary publishing. In addition to developing recipes and food styling for some of her favorite brands, she's currently working on her fourth cookbook. In this episode, you'll discover the essential equipment for capturing mouthwatering food photos, how props can make or break your shots, and the role of color theory in food photography. Key points discussed include: - Invest in a quality camera and lens: Having the right equipment, such as a DSLR camera and a versatile zoom lens, can make a significant difference in your food photography. - Use a sturdy tripod: A geared tripod, like the Manfrotto, allows you to achieve precise angles and compositions for your shots. - Experiment with budget-friendly props: Look for unique items at thrift stores, fabric shops, and even your own home to create visually appealing scenes. - Embrace color theory: Understand how complementary colors can enhance the visual appeal of your food photos. - Prioritize composition: Use odd numbers, multiples, and strategic placement to guide the viewer's eye through your images. - Enhance food appearance: Techniques like brushing cheese with oil or using thickened syrups can help make your food look fresh and irresistible. - Embrace the "mess": Don't be afraid to capture the natural imperfections and realistic details that make your food photos more approachable. - Practice and trust your intuition: Continuous practice, studying other photographers' work, and having confidence in your own style are key to improving your food photography.
