Photo Geek Weekly Episode 162 – VR Revolution

I first came across Don years ago on the Two Hosers Photo Show podcast when they interviewed him on his Snowflake Photography.  I was so captivated by that episode that I went to Don&#39;s Website and bought his book on that subject called Sky Crystals a great read and really worth the time and money to get it BTW.  

As to the PhotoGeek Weekly podcast.  This is one podcast that I love to listen to.  Don and his guess hosts talk about issues in photography from copyright to ethics to gear and beyond.  If you are like most photographers and love to discus various technical topics in photography you need to subscribe to this podcast…Go do it now we will wait for you… 

Done good welcome to the community.

Geeks Rule

I like podcasts where the host(s) know what they’re talking about, and Don Komarechka sure does. Each show he brings on a different guest host to talk about 3 or 4 recent photo related stories. What makes this show different is both the types of stories they pick, which run from full on geek stuff to ethical questions, and the way they discuss it. Don leads the conversation down roads that matter to most photographers. Great stuff.
