He was featured in a really interesting <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ddk68SOEUiY'>Geekwire YouTube</a> video showcasing why he made the switch, which really piqued my interest.    Michael and I covered a wide variety of topics this week, including: <ul><li> Photographing panoramas using film. </li> <li> Photographing the Great Plains.  </li> <li> <a href='https://www.michaelstricklandimages.com/drum-scanning-service'>Drum Scanning</a>.  </li> <li> Portraying mood and emotion through photography. </li> <li> <a href='https://hiddenlightllc.com/black-and-white-darkroom-printing/platinum-palladium/'>Platinum Palladium</a> prints. </li> <li> and a lot more... </li> </ul> Over on Patreon this week, Michael gives us some tips on how to get started in film photography.  Head over to <a href='http://patreon.com/fstopandlisten'>patreon.com/fstopandlisten</a> for more info on how you can support the podcast and get bonus content at the same time.     Before we get started, I wanted to remind listeners that my good friend Gary Randall still has some workshop openings for his 2020 Alaska photography workshops. You could not meet a nicer guy than Gary so I really think you'll love going with him to photograph bears on the Kenai Peninsula.
