Photography Podcasts

Here is the list of my current favorite photography podcast programs.

Podcasts are time-shifted audio programs. Another way to think of it is to equate podcasting with Tivo®, as in Tivo® for radio. Most of the best are amateur productions. No need to have an iPod®, any mp3 player will work and you can even listen at your computer. To get the whole scoop on podcasting check this Wikipedia link. Over the next few days I’ll post more of my favorites from other categories.

Palouse Evening on Linville Road
“Palouse Evening on Linville Road”

I got a big surprise this morning via bashpodder, my podcasting aggregator. Scott Brenner, of the famous “Today’s Podcast”, featured a word I sent him a while back. An Appaloosa is the beautiful Nez Perce horse breed famous for their agility and their spotted rumps. Scott produces a word or quote of the day podcast that is always interesting even I can’t seem to work many the words into conversation.

In the podcast Scott refers to a picture I took called “Palouse Morning on Linville Road”. Now on closer examination of the exif data associated with the image it was “Date Taken: 2002:05:08 19:48:17”. So I have to rename it “Palouse Evening on Linville Road”. Sorry.

You can listen to Scott’s “Appaloosa” podcast here. Visit “Today’s Podcast” and subscribe to Scott’s podcast here.

“…and tell all your friends about podcasting.”
