Our guest today is Levin Barrett, a passionate, award winning Astro and Landscape Photographer. He runs photography courses and tours while also still working as a commercial pilot! https://rareview.photography/ https://www.instagram.com/rareview.photography/ Here is some more about Levin in his own words:I started many years ago, about as far from photography as you could imagine, as an aircraft engineer. After 20 years I decided to fly them rather than fix them and re-educated myself to become a pilot. I am now a Captain with a major Australian airline and fly both domestically and internationally. Through all of this I have had a passion for photography starting with an Olympus OM1 back in 1980 and had my own black and white darkroom. I drifted away from photography during my busy stage of life but 18 years ago I got back into it and have just gone nuts with photography since them.   =========================================== THE CAMERA LIFE  - LIVE PHOTOGRAPHY PODCAST =========================================== ➡Blog: https://luckystraps.com/the-camera-life ➡YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@the_camera_life   ➡IG: https://www.instagram.com/the_camera_life_podcast ➡Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1dC4kPNrLORz2ASrukyOS5?si=18c6fd2534cf4d97 ➡Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-camera-life/id1760304677   =================================================== LUCKY STRAPS - THE BEST CAMERA STRAPS ON THE PLANET =================================================== ✅ Quick Release System ✅ Anti-Theft, Cut-Resistant and Safety Lock ✅ Super Comfortable Genuine Leather ✅ Australian Made and Lifetime Guarantee  ✅ Personalise with Your Name or Logo ✅ Owned, Designed and Used by Working Photographers   SHOP NOW - https://luckystraps.com/   ================ CONNECT WITH US ================ Greg Cromie - Writer and Photographer ➡IG: https://www.instagram.com/gcromie/ ➡Greg's Blog: https://gregcromie.blog/   Justin Castles - Photographer and Founder of L...
