 Is a good learner more critical than a teacher?Without a student, you can't teach! All these overpraising of a teacher crumbles if there is no learner who is surrendering to the teaching!Imagine you give a seminar over a meaningful topic, and after 1 month you ask the participating students what they have learned… It will crumble your ego… When you teach, expect that not more than 5% of your students will do what you have said or understand, or memorize the essence …Again, what is more critical the student or the teacher?  For what is good, to give a seminar? 1.) to make money.2.) to build up your ego.3.) to build up self-esteem.4.) to become arrogant.Mostly what I have learned, I have learned by myself.And Seminars are the worst place to learn something for me.Why? 1.) I can't stop the teacher when I have not understood anything.2.) I can't repeat the sentence that was important for me when I have heard it.3.) I get overwhelmed to memorize the most important things.4.) I can't learn at my pace.5.) If I am tired, I can't stop the teacher.6.) And I have to go somewhere else, and lose time and energy to travel to the seminar!7.) Most of the seminars are overwhelming for the students…8.) Long seminars over 6 hours are the worst…because usually, we don't learn for such a long time.  9.) And even I have to spend huge money on seminars… I bought Photographs courses from the best photographs (Michael Melfort, Joel Sartore, Bob Christ… ) of this galaxy for a penny… because I waited until the price went down from $1000$ to $50.  I never would exchange these priceless video courses for a seminar with these photographs… Because the photograph teachers want to make you happy and present you with excellent arranged photo opportunities and when you come home, you didn't have learned much… You can't repeat your success…If you go to a famous Guru and even he/she is a fake guru if you surrender, your life will change tremendously for your best… How many people surrender? Not more than 1 %!!! For what should the Gurus be real… for 1 %? When I started my inner journey, I learned, and I acted on that…. Bhagwan wanted that we surrender to every guru…Through an insane Guru, who nobody would surrender, I got my Kundalini. When I went to the concert of Nusrat Fathe Ali Khan, I got a Samadhi, and my life changed dramatically. Even I didn't have known this very fat Nusrat or liked his music… But I surrendered totally when I saw him. I thought I could die because through Nusrat's energy my heart ached a lot and my heart was beating irregularly and strong.My Video: A good Learner is more important… https://youtu.be/DpyV0Z5VRr0My Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/A-good-Learner-is-more-important….mp3

In my continuing series of conversations with people who have shaped the Photographs market, I move back to focusing on the auction world.  I sat down with Rick Wester, who, in addition to being a private dealer, consultant, and gallery owner, he has headed up the Photographs departments of 2 of 3 major auction houses, and has put together some of the most memorable sales of the last 40 years.  I sat down to find out what it was like to be working in the wild west of the auction world during the 1990s and 2000s, and what lessons he learned during the ride.

Hello to you listening in Seattle, Washington!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more to visit history) for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Recently I read a comment on Substack about the changes being wrought by 47 and his criminal cabal to erase - as much as obscenely possible - evidence of slavery in America thereby making history disappear. Yes, many have tried to make history disappear but the stories, the oral histories, the voices, the art, books and photographs remain. Not all - but enough to stand witness.One such book, The Ghosts of Segregation, was authored by our very own Whidbey Island writer and photographer, Richard Frishman who saw what 45's administration was doing and had to do something to defy it.   Unexpectedly, while researching the Ghosts of Segregation, I found my way to the Panama Hotel in Seattle which some of you may remember as the hotel featured in the novel, The  Hotel at the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, by Jamie Ford.The Panama Hotel remains the repository of personal belongings stored there by some of the 8,000 people of Japanese ancestry who were forced from Seattle and into internment camps (known as War Relocation Centers) set up in Midwestern states as a result of Executive Order 9066. They had one week's warning.Eventually, over 120,000 men, women and children of Japanese ancestry were forced from their homes, businesses and farms on the Pacific Coast in a systematic, government sponsored exile of innocent people. Most of them were United States citizens. The incarceration turned US citizens into refugees in their own country.But the story is still alive staving off erasure. A grant from the National Park Service helped researchers document, catalogue and map the contents of suitcases, trunks, and boxes, over 8500 items left in the hotel basement. Because of the historical value of the Panama Hotel, it was designated as a National Treasure in 2015. Today the Panama Hotel serves as a living time capsule, a shrine to a community, and the site of the Japanese American Museum of Seattle.  Story Prompt: How might we change the future with understanding and compassion so as to defy fear and hatred of The Other?

"Life is not significant details, illuminated by a flash, fixed forever. Photographs are." - Susan Sontag "I am forever chasing light. Light turns the ordinary into the magical." - Trent Parke   In this episode, Antonio talks about visiting the Cass County Fair in Nebraska, using the trip as a chance to explore how he wants to approach photography in his new environment. Surrounded by the mix of people, animals, and small-town fair details, he leaned into shooting with his often-neglected Fuji X-Pro3 and a wide 16mm lens, embracing the different perspective it offered. The outing became less about documenting the event in a straightforward way and more about experimenting with composition, perspective, and mood to see how his work might evolve outside of Brooklyn. Both he and Ward recently picked up compact Godox iT30 Pro flashes with the intention of using them for street photography, but once out shooting, each decided against firing them. That hesitation becomes the starting point for a deeper discussion on flash photography. They trace its evolution from the early days of magnesium powder and flashbulbs, through the era of Polaroid flashcubes, to the development of strobes and today's TTL units. The conversation touches on photographers who made notable use of flash, including Jessie Tarbox Beals, O. Winston Link, Philippe Halsman, and Bruce Davidson, exploring how each applied it to their work. Alongside the historical overview, Antonio and Ward get into the technical differences between older and modern flash systems, the practical challenges of using flash in the field, and how light-shaping tools and timing have played a role in iconic images.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

Welcome back toa prior era of photography.

Jes Staley's lawyers accused JPMorgan Chase of slandering their client in legal filings related to the bank's connection to Jeffrey Epstein. In court documents submitted to a Manhattan federal judge, Staley's legal team—led by Brendan Sullivan—claimed JPMorgan made “baseless but serious” allegations that wrongly painted Staley as a facilitator of Epstein's sex trafficking enterprise. They argued that the bank's claims were not only unfounded but designed to shift blame away from its own institutional failures by scapegoating Staley in the public eye.The legal team also pushed back against JPMorgan's effort to combine its suit against Staley with other lawsuits targeting the bank, arguing that doing so would unfairly prejudice Staley's ability to mount a defense. They maintained that the allegations had inflicted reputational harm and financial risk on Staley and that the bank's strategy amounted to character assassination dressed as litigation. Despite their objections, the court later denied Staley's request to sever the case.Also:In 2023, during the course of civil litigation, the Epstein estate revealed that it had uncovered a previously unknown cache of videos and photographs that might contain child sex abuse material. The discovery caught attorneys and investigators by surprise, as these materials had not surfaced during prior criminal proceedings against Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell. The estate disclosed the existence of the cache under seal and reported it to federal authorities, including the FBI, while seeking court approval for proper review protocols to determine the contents and legality of the files.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Cache Of Secret Videos, Photos Found By Jeffrey Epstein's Estate (brobible.com)source:Jes Staley's lawyers hit out at ‘slanderous' attacks by JP Morgan | Banking | The GuardianBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

He is representing himself and is seeking spousal support. Denise Richards filed for an ex parte temporary restraining order from Aaron Phypers. Photographs of a black eye were submitted as evidence and she explained that her laptop and phone were stolen. Denise accuses Aaron of disseminating private nude photographs and text messages from her stolen laptop to various news organizations, including the Daily Mail, even after the TTRO was issued. Denise moved out of their shared Calabasas home in 2023 due to marital issues and has since been renting three separate townhouses. Aaron, along with his parents, is still living in the Calabasas rental. On August 8th, a court hearing is scheduled to address the temporary restraining order. The purpose of this hearing is to determine if a more permanent restraining order needs to be issued, or if the existing temporary order should be extended. Alec Baldwin's malicious prosecution lawsuit against the prosecutor and Kari Morrissey, related to the "Rust" prosecution, was dismissed by the judge on July 29, 2025, because no significant action had been taken in 180 or more days. Baldwin's attorneys stated to Law 360 that they have been in good faith settlement discussions and will refile the lawsuit if these talks are not favorably resolved.

This week, we talk about the Blackhawk helicopter crash report, the damage an unfortunate rumor about a college student caused, and the frightening prospect of necessary, useful data being stifled or simply going away. Then, for our main segment, Ben and Kenny go over the infamous Columbus poltergeist case, an incident from 1984 involving, you guessed it, a young woman with some issues who was suddenly haunted by a mysterious force. Tina Resch was consistently underestimated by "experts" who looked into the case after some photos of a flying phone rocketed Tina's adopted family into the national spotlight. The Amazing Randi was not allowed on the property, but we have information from plenty of other sources, including Resch herself, that she was faking the incidents. Still, this self-debunked case has much to teach us about how the sensationalism around a supposed supernatural event can take over lives.

"In a good or successful color photograph, the picture's definition or meaning will somehow arise through the use of color” "Photographs have always been convincing lies." -- Joel Sternfeld In this episode, Ward shares stories from his recent road trip to Saskatchewan, including a visit to a hometown dirt track race—a nostalgic return since his last visit in 1978. The conversation turns toward grassroots motorsports, photography at the races, and how families get deeply involved, even with kids racing $40,000 modified cars. Antonio reflects on settling into life in Nebraska, exploring his surroundings, and using the Fuji X-Half camera as a spontaneous photo companion. He shares how the small, JPEG-only camera has helped him rediscover simple photographic joy, especially during a recent photo class with teens. The heart of the episode focuses on photographer Joel Sternfeld. Antonio and Ward explore Sternfeld's thoughtful approach to color, how his emotional state influenced his editing choices, and the meticulous process behind his transition from 35mm to large-format 8x10 photography. They dig into Nags Head, his lesser-known 1975 series that unexpectedly triggered vivid memories for Antonio from his childhood summers in Provincetown, MA—despite being shot in North Carolina. The conversation also covers American Prospects, Sternfeld's iconic work that blends subdued color palettes with a reflective look at American culture. Ward reflects on how Sternfeld's careful use of color theory and restrained composition creates a sense of presence and emotional clarity rarely found in contemporary work.   YouTube - Joel Sternfeld and Geoffrey Batchen YouTube - ARTIST TALKS - JOEL STERNFELD - PARIS PHOTO 2019   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

In 2013, Ghislaine Maxwell brazenly appeared at a high-profile charity gala billed as a front-line defense against human trafficking—an event meant to spotlight and dismantle the very horrors she was complicit in. Photographs from that night show her mingling with celebrities, donors, and advocates, all under the banner of fighting exploitation. Meanwhile, behind closed doors, Maxwell was actively orchestrating the grooming and trafficking of underage girls for Jeffrey Epstein's operation. The optics were more than tone-deaf—they were a calculated performance, designed to mask her role in facilitating one of the most notorious abuse networks in modern memory .What makes this moment particularly disturbing is not just the contradiction of Maxwell's presence—it's how effectively it highlights systemic blind spots in elite philanthropic spaces. This was not a case of someone unknowingly adjacent to wrongdoing; this was a woman under serious suspicion of trafficking-related conduct attending an event explicitly aimed at combating that very crime. Her attendance underscores how wealth, social standing, and calculated public appearances can insulate individuals from scrutiny, even when their private behavior directly conflicts with the cause they publicly support. It raises serious questions about how easily well-connected individuals can exploit the reputational shield of charitable involvement to deflect accountability and delay exposure.To contact me:Bobbycapucci@protonmail.comSource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8827667/Ghislaine-Maxwell-pictured-charity-event-stop-sex-trafficking.html

It’s called airbrushing history and all dictators do it to erase the truth. Sometimes it can be petty. One example is that Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon deleted photos that were on their website of the first black military pilots during WWII, The post The Power of Photographs and the Truth That Threatens Dictators appeared first on KDA Keeping Democracy Alive Podcast & Radio Show.

In searching for answers to quell fears or explain life's quirks, humans have oft come up with some pretty bizarre beliefs. Tomatoes are poison? Witches steal a particular male body part and keep them for pets? Baths are dangerous? Photographs steal your soul? Ya, pretty funny yet weird stuff in which we used to believe. Jon and Kurt use this episode to recount and wonder at some of the strangest of these.  

Our guests for June 2025 on Conversations from the Pointed Firs are CIPPERLY GOOD and KEVIN JOHNSON, curators of Sardineland, a new exhibit at Penobscot Marine Museum in Searsport, Maine that tells the stories of the maritime communities affected by the boom and bust of Maine's Sardine Industry and Herring Fishery.

On the morning of June 6th, 1944, war photographer Robert Capa waded ashore on Omaha Beach during the Allied landings in Normandy. What happened next became the stuff of legend: under withering fire, Capa supposedly captured over a hundred photographs of the chaos and courage of D-Day, only for all but eleven to be lost in a darkroom accident. These surviving images, the so-called “Magnificent Eleven,” helped define the visual memory of D-Day and cemented Capa's reputation as the greatest war photographer of the 20th century. But what if the story we've long accepted isn't entirely true? In his book Back into Focus: The Real Story of Robert Capa's D-Day, Charles Herrick takes a forensic look at the events of that day, unraveling inconsistencies in Capa's own account and challenging the myths that have grown around his legacy. Drawing on official military records, eyewitness testimony, and detailed photo analysis, Herrick offers a new—and at times controversial—perspective on one of the most iconic moments in photojournalism history. I'm delighted to welcome Charles to the podcast today to talk about what really happened on D-Day, how the legend of Robert Capa was built, and what his findings mean for how we understand both history and heroism.   patreon.com/ww2podcast

Staten Island photographer Alice Austen was groundbreaking for her non-conformity to gender norms, and her street photographs of New York from the 1890s. Bonnie Yochelson, author of the new book Too Good To Get Married: The Life and Photographs of Miss Alice Austen, discusses Austen's career.

LW1457 - Straying from Conventions Everybody complains about dandelions in their yard, but photographically they are just gorgeous little plants. Who among us has not photographed a dandelion once it's gone to seed? This has me thinking about other botanical subjects. Photographs of roses, orchids, peonies, calla lilies, all well and good. But why does no one ever photograph poison ivy, thistle, mullein, and all the other weeds against which we are so prejudiced? The artist's role is to be a seer, and it appears that part of being a seer is to let go of our prejudices.

In this special edition for World Oceans Day, we spotlight the urgent, haunting work of Mandy Barker, the award-winning British photographic artist using sea-salvaged fashion waste to expose the truth about plastic pollution. Her cyanotype series "Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Imperfections" reimagines the work of 19th-century botanist Anna Atkins, replacing seaweed with clothing scraps collected from 121 beaches around the UK. The result is both poetic and jarring, earning praise from none other than Sir David Attenborough, who supports Barker's work for its power to inspire real change.

In Too Good to Get Married: The Life and Photographs of Miss Alice Austen (Fordham University Press, 2025) by Dr. Bonnie Yochelson, explore Gilded Age New York through the lens of Alice Austen, who captured the social rituals of New York's leisured class and the bustling streets of the modern city. Celebrated as a queer artist, she was this and much more.Alice Austen (1866–1952) lived at Clear Comfort, her grandparent's Victorian cottage on Staten Island, which is now a National Historic Landmark. As a teenager, she devoted herself to photography, recording what she called “the larky life” of tennis matches, yacht races, and lavish parties.When she was 25 and expected to marry, Austen used her camera to satirize gender norms by posing with her friends in their undergarments and in men's clothes, “smoking” cigarettes, and feigning drunkenness. As she later remarked, she was “too good to get married.” Austen embraced the rebellious spirit of the “New Woman,” a moniker given to those who defied expectations by pursuing athletics, higher education, or careers. She had romantic affairs with women, and at 31, she met Gertrude Tate, who became her life partner. Briefly, Austen considered becoming a professional photographer. She illustrated Bicycling for Ladies, a guide written by her friend Violet Ward, and she explored the working-class neighborhoods of Manhattan to produce a portfolio, “Street Types of New York.” Rejecting the taint of commerce, however, she remained within the confines of elite society with Tate by her side.Although interest in Austen has accelerated since 2017, when the Alice Austen House was designated a national site of LGBTQ history, the only prior book on Austen was published in 1976. Copiously illustrated, Too Good to Get Married fills the need for a fresh and deeply researched look at this skillful and witty photographer. Through analysis of Austen's photographs, Yochelson illuminates the history of American photography and the history of sexuality. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Tom Sheehan was born in Camberwell, South London. He was an in-house photographer for CBS Records in the 70s, and went on to be the chief photographer for Melody Maker. He enjoyed long-term working relationships with the likes of REM, The Cure, Manic Street Preachers, and Oasis, the subject of a new book of Tom's work entitled “Roll With It: Oasis in Photographs 1994-2002”. I had a great time chatting with Tom about his life and work, and I hope you enjoy it too.

Watson news, much talk about Sherlock & Co and where this version of "A Scandal in Bohemia" seems headed, and a bit about signs of trouble in Watson's relationship with his literary agent.

HT2259 - The Market for Used Photographs I spent the day yesterday in one of my favorite used book stores, Robert's Books in Lincoln City, Oregon. This is a giant building filled to the brim with used books of every kind and age and interest you could possibly imagine. I picked up three volumes of short stories that I'd never heard of or seen before, treasures I am already enjoying here at the beach. And then it dawned on me, why is there no market for used photographs the way there is for used books?

This week, Hear the Dance host Silas Farley leads us on a wide-ranging exploration of Jerome Robbins' 1994 ballet A Suite of Dances. First, he's joined by Repertory Director Jean-Pierre Frohlich, who coaches the work; Principal Dancer Daniel Ulbricht, who initially learned the tour-de-force role in 2019; and former Principal Dancer Peter Boal, who worked with Robbins on the development of the ballet. They walk through the creation and performance of the four movements, highlighting the ways in which A Suite of Dances teaches the performer about themselves—particularly as they grow with and age alongside the piece.

In this second part of our Hear the Dance journey into Jerome Robbins' A Suite of Dances, Cellist Hannah Holman joins host Silas Farley to provide a deep-dive introduction to the Bach Cello Suites that provide the ballet's exquisite score. As Holman explains, the music is a seminal work for every cellist, with complex challenges and varied delights throughout—all of which are complicated and enriched when performed onstage with the work's solo dancer.

Have you ever slogged through writing a sales page on your website thinking, "This is the one; it's going to work!" And crickets. Nothing seems to stick. If you run a business and you have a website, you know what I'm talking about. Kris Jones will explain exactly why that's happening and what you can do to fix it. StoryBrand's Donald Miller hand-selected Kris as a mentee. She's cracked the code on turning expertise into sales. She helps coaches and consultants scale from $30,000 to $300,000 months using her signature storytelling system, proving that you don't need endless content or complicated funnels to attract premium clients – just one story told very well. "My heart's always been with that self-employed business owner, the small business, the solopreneur, the people that are really also on the planet doing the work that they're meant to do, right, that are really aligned with their purpose," says Kris. "Those are the people that I like to help. And those are the people that really can benefit the most from telling a really powerful story." When you apply a story to your website, people recognize that you're somebody they can really trust. It's important that the story you're telling them doesn't pressure them to take action but inspires them to take that next step of wanting to work with you. "Our environment has changed a lot as far as the digital world that we live in, but we are all wired for story, and that is never going to change," says Kris. Kris says the biggest mistake people make on their websites is making themselves the hero of their story. She likens it to meeting someone for a quick coffee date—you sit down and connect with them first, then check in with where they are. You wouldn't sit down and say, "I just had a flood at my house, and this is the best plumber, and you should work with this plumber!" They don't have any plumbing issues. Take the time to connect with them first.  In your website copy, you want to let people know that they matter and understand what is going on in their lives before you start talking about yourself and the problems you solve. The call to action needs to be a natural next step in working with you. She says many people offer a "learn more" call—nobody wants to "learn more." People don't want to have to go to multiple pages to gather the information they need. Kris suggests a one-page homepage format, which allows users to scroll. It's a comfortable and natural mobile design. It also allows the story to unfold and provides all the information rather than siloing your website's copy on different pages, such as services or testimonials. Changing pages requires more effort than the scrolling motion. Another common website mistake is designing the page as an afterthought. The design components need to bring your story to life and align with it. Our brains process visuals so fast.  Photographs are so powerful. Instead of having pictures of ourselves, show the client in their happy, successful state. Shift the lens to make your clients the hero of your story through both words and visuals.  "When you're the hero of your own story, you kick a potential client out of your story," says Kris. That's the most powerful way to create that connection on your website—really articulate their problem. Clients then feel seen, heard, validated, and not alone. Most importantly, when we articulate their problem well, they feel like we are the best ones to solve it, says Kris. "The way that I see a lot of people doing this wrong is that they take this opportunity to talk about features of the work they do, which is actually talking about yourself," says Kris. "We really want to answer that question that they have in their brain when they land on their website. They're asking three important questions: What's in it for me? What's in it for me? And what's in it for me?"   Connect with guest Kris Jones: From Click to Client: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/book How to Write Compelling Copy in 5 Minutes: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/free-resources Building a Story Brand Book: https://amzn.to/3P4JYUE    Other GoG episodes you might want to check out:   How to Write Sales Copy That Sells: https://sarahwalton.com/how-to-write-sales-copy/    Storytelling, Sharing With Clients and Taylor Swift: https://sarahwalton.com/sharing-your-story/    You can check out our podcast interviews on YouTube, too! http://bit.ly/YouTubeSWalton   Thank you so much for listening.

 In 1993, four people gathered in a dark basement in Scole, England, hoping to communicate with the dead. What followed was five years of unexplained phenomena that challenged scientific understanding.  Strange lights danced in the darkness. Objects materialized from thin air. Photographs appeared on sealed film.  Scientists and professional skeptics were invited to investigate, and many left without explanations. The spirits claimed to be building a network between dimensions and warned of coming changes to humanity.  Were the Scole Experiments genuine contact with the afterlife, or an elaborate magic show perfected over 500 séances? The evidence remains controversial, but the impact on those who witnessed these events was undeniable.
