In this episode, I briefly discuss the Auto Focus Guide Canon has published for the Canon EOS R1 and dive into a discussion on the ideal boots for cold-weather photography. I will publish a fairly extensive blog post on boots for cold-weather photography, as well as gloves and camera bags, in the near future. This podcast is therefore a preview for the upcoming, more extensive article where I deep dive into my choice of the best boots for cold-weather photography. Härkila Aatamik GTX Boots Ir...
In this episode, I wrap up the three workshops I just completed in Iceland (two back-to-back workshops for the Arctic Fox in Hornstrandir and a private landscape trip to the south-west and south-eastern regions - trip reports coming soon). I also discuss what I want to see next from Canon and why dynamic range is just not that important as a camera metric.

In this episode, I wrap up the photography festival Xposure in Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates and share my thoughts on this industry-leading event. Event organisers around the world should take note of what has been achieved and continues to be achieved in the UAE in relation to photography and photographic festivals and events. Sharjah and the Xposure organisers are setting both a world and industry-leading standard for others to follow. If you want to know where the cutting edge of pho...
In this episode, I wrap up my recently completed Snow Leopard workshop to north western Mongolia, discuss the era of zero accountability in airline travel (after an awful experience with Turkish Airlines), Canon's latest firmware upgrade for the RF 24-105mm F4L Lens, as well as the upcoming photo expo in Sharjah. I also discuss how to shoot for magazine covers and what it takes to score the cover of a major photography magazine. Support the show Wild Nature Photo Travel Photography Workshops ...

This podcast also includes my book pick of the year (Bird Photographer of the Year Volume 10), equipment selection of the year (The Canon RF 100-300mm F2.8L & the Tilta Cage for the Canon EOS R1), and favourite photograph from 2025. 2025 was also the year I shot, produced and released Guardians of the Forest with my good friend Chris Nemes. All up, it was an extremely productive year full of...
In this episode, I review Travel and Documentary photographer Richard L'Anson's new magnum opus - 'Way Down South'. A massive tome of a book containing the sum of Richard's work from Antarctica, the Falkland Islands, South Shetlands and South Georgia. This was an interesting and thoroughly enjoyable book for me to review, as it's a subject and region near and dear to my heart and my passion for the world's Polar regions. Yesterday, I also released my new short film – Guardians of the Forest....
In this episode, I spend some time looking into what is coming up in 2026. Historically, I have done a very long blog post or podcast that is both a retrospective on the current year (the year that was) and a look forward into the new year. This year, I have decided to break it up into two more bite-sized chunks and have two separate podcasts. This episode looks ahead to 2026, with some thoughts on travel, equipment, and photography in general. In other news, I was also appointed an Adobe Com...
In this episode, I review Jeff Pfaller's new book, Dark Skies 'Rare Phenomena in America's Public Lands'. This is a wonderfully refreshing take on America's parks, offering a nighttime perspective on the landscape and the joy of both nighttime photography and evening solitude in America's national parks. Highly recommended. Jeff Pfaller Adobe A.I Noise Reduction Presets for the Canon EOS R1 November Photograph of the Month Support the show Wild Nature Photo Travel Photography Workshops and Ex...

In this episode, I review Daniel Bergmann's wonderful new book 'Birds in Iceland - A Visual Journey'. In case you want to skip the podcast (you shouldn't), I will give you the short of it - Buy it. It is a fabulous example of how a photographic book should be approached, designed and executed. Even more importantly, it's a visual journey of more than twenty years of outstanding bird photography by Iceland's leading bird photographer. This book transcends mere documentation and gives us wonder...
