New listener

I just got into photography a few months ago.   I’m a techie person (I did EMR application development for years) but It can be difficult to understand some of the technical stuff associated with photography.  Ross does a great job of breaking it down so that anyone can understand.  This podcast covers a wide variety of useful topics so every photographer will find something of value here.  This is now my go to podcast that I listen to whenever I’m in the car.

A must for every beginning photographer!
