Uncle Jonesy's Cameras

Wayne and Kevin (The Shutter Brothers) are back - and Kevin has finally made a decision as to which cameras he will be taking to Ireland later this month. You'll have to listen to find out, but know this: it's the Final Answer! Menwhile, Wayne has some thoughts about his Canon Canonet QL GIII and what part it might play in his future photography endeavors.  Both the Shutter Bros. have been doing some darkroom printing lately, and Kevin has made use of a handy tool, the Ilford EM10. Listen to hear how it might help you. Some listener email and a discussion of the forthcoming 5th Annual Photowalk With the Shutters round out the show. Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 24 in Huntsville, Alabama for a day of photography, fellowship, and fun! Check out our show notes at www.unclejonesyscameras.blogspot.com for more details.

The Shutter Brothers are back with a new show and a question: Which phtographer do most associate with the National Parks of the United States? Ansel Adams? Charlton Watkins? How about Timothy O'Sullivan? Actually, the photographer who should be synonymous with the US National Parks is a name you probably haven't heard of:  George Alexander Grant. Kevin recently discovered a fascinating book about Grant and his amazing National Park photography, and he reviews it on the show. Meanwhile, Wayne and Kevin sort through some great listener email and discuss more details about the 5th Annual Photowak with the Shutter Brothers scheduled for Saturday, October 24 in Huntsville, Alabama. Mark your calendars now! Chec out our show notes at www.unclejonesyscameras.blogspot.com.  Happy Photography!

Kevin recently had the chance to walk around with both cameras while on vacation, and he pesents a full report. Finally, Wayne and Kevin discuss deatils of the 5th Annual Photowalk with the Shutter Brothers on Saturday, October 24, in Huntsville, AL. Mark your calendars and make your plans to participate.

With apologies to our southern hemisphere listeners, it's been really hot here in eastern Tennessee - so hot, in fact, that neither Wayne nor Kevin have felt very much like getting out with a camera. So, what does a dedicated photographer do when it's too hot to shoot? Lot's of things, actually, and the Shutter Brothers happily share some things to do when you can't get out. Meanwhile, Wayne had been busy making more prints for his Random Works of Art project, and pretty soon some lucky people will have the chance to own a genuine Wayne Setser print.  Finally, the Shutter Bros read some great emails from our faithful listeners.

Wayne and Kevin have a friendly discussion (arguement) over the authenticity of photographs that are printed by someone other then the photographer are valid expamples of the photographer's work. Kevin says yes, while Wayne says no. What's your opinion? Let us know with an email to [email protected]. Meanwhile, Kevin presents a review of Stephen Shore's book, The Nature of Photographs, and Wayne leads a discussion of large format camera movements. The Shutter Brothers finish the show with some excellent listener email. We are grateful for all our listeners, especially those who write to us.
