Sunny 16 Podcast

On this weeks show we talk about what we'd be leaving behind for others if we suddenly weren't here. This included topics like the way we all handle our image storage, both digital and physical, how our pictures could be accessed and used by others in the future, and how someone who isn't into photography could make any sense out of our mountains of gear!

It's a post festive period catchup this week, and a look ahead to a year of hopefully photographic fun.    Our impromptu list of monthly subject/inspiration topics: January: Desires February: Traffic March: Blue April: Magic May: Tree June: Song Lyric July: Electric Dreams August: Motivated light September: Forced perspective October: Event November: Into the night December: Faces

Seasons Greetings everyone, we're here with an alcohol fueled mini Sunny Awards show so pull the good stuff out of 2021 before we cast the generally wretched year into the fiery abyss forever.   Some of the awesome stuff and people from this year:   Ethan Moses 20x24 Instant Pictures Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cameradactylmongoose/20x24-instant-pictures-in-los-angeles Reveni Spot meter: https://www.reveni-labs.com/spotmeter Pinsta camera: https://www.pinstacamera.com/ Photography Through the Pandemic Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hamishgill/photography-through-the-pandemic   I Dream of Cameras: https://www.idreamofcameras.com/   They Live movie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/They_Live Anna Atkins: https://www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/anna-atkins-cyanotypes-the-first-book-of-photographs.html James Lane: https://www.zoneimaginglab.co.uk/about Audrey Steimer: https://audreysteimer.com/ Emma Lloyd: https://www.instagram.com/ejlloydart/?hl=en Alex Heron: https:/

On this weeks show, after a suitably rambling start, we get into a discussion about some of Ade and Clare's favourite photographers (the very different William Eggleston, Dianne Arbus, Corinne Day and Helmut Newton) why their work has been important to them over the years, and why it stands out amongst the sea of photography out there. We also have a couple of cracking follow up emails from last weeks show. 

Ade, Clare and Graeme ease themselves back into the podcast mindset with a rambling conversation about our recent adventures, what inspires us to shoot, how we feel about what we shoot and a host of digressions. Like we said, we're easing our rusty pod-brains back into gear this week, so bear with!

The podcast returns this week as Ade, Clare, Hamish and Graeme get together to remember our dear friend John in the way that he affected all of our lives - positively. No tears, some laughs, and at the end just a whole load of John   We don't dwell on what his loss means to us personally, because if you listened to the last podcast then you deserve a break and a medal, and if you've listened to this podcast over the last couple of years then you already know. He brought joy, wisdom, compassion, support and inspiration to all of us, and now we don't have him. It sucks. It hurts.   Thanks for bearing with us :)   If you would like to back the Photography through the Pandemic book which Hamish talks about, now dedicated to John's memory, then go here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hamishgill/photography-through-the-pandemic If you would like to donate to the Just Giving page, go here: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/anne-marie-brownlee-1  

On this weeks show Ade and Clare are joined by Oliver New, the man behind the Pinsta Camera, a highly innovative new product currently on Kickstarter which manages to combine a Pinhole camera, developing tank and micro dark room all in one small, exceedingly well built box.   Find the Kickstarter here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1221830697/pinsta-instant-camera-micro-darkroom-and-negative-enlarger?ref=project_build And on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pinsta_camera/  

It's the Cheap Shots Challenge, back again helping you relaxing with the theme UNWIND.   We are joined by the fabulous Tina Rowe who gives us a little update of what she has been up to as well as providing some valuable commentary on the submissions on the way to selecting a winner. Who knows what they will physically win, but a winner in the eyes of Tina is the greatest prize anyone could hope for.   Also available on YouTube so you can actually see the photos: https://youtu.be/7-T6OZUU_cw   Tina's video in full: Azul : https://vimeo.com/612972367 https://tinarowe.co.uk/ https://www.instagram.com/tinarororo/   sunny16podcast@gmail.com https://ko-fi.com/sunny16podcast https://sunny16podcast.com/ Buy us a cuppa: https://ko-fi.com/sunny16podcast   ------------------------------ Sunny 16 Podcast ------------------------------- https://sunny16podcast.com/ https://www.instagram.com/sunny16podcast/ https://twitter.com/sunny16podcast sunny16podcast@gmail.com   Clare Marie-Bailey https://twitte

On this weeks show we're delighted to be joined by the fabulous Alexandra Heron, photographer and now public speaker, to talk about her long term project "Breadth", a collection of beautiful portraits of people on the Autistic spectrum, as is Alex, and their own individual stories, with the aim of shattering the many stereotypes associated with autism.   https://www.alexandraheron.com/breadth https://www.instagram.com/her.on.shoots/  

After a busy day at the Photography Show 2021 we headed, as good folks are sometimes want to do, to the nearest bar, and proceeded to collar a few friends for a chat.   Anil Mistry: https://twitter.com/anilmistry Paul McKay: https://twitter.com/AnalogueWLand Michelle Parr: https://twitter.com/ILFORDPhoto Steve Lloyd and Dave Gurney: https://twitter.com/ChromaCamera Hamish Gill: https://twitter.com/HamishGill Alex Purcell: https://twitter.com/GrainyBlur Stephen Dowling: https://twitter.com/kosmofoto   Mining by Moonlight by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://filmmusic.io/song/4055-mining-by-moonlight License: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license

Join us on a fun-filled journey as we prepare for the UK Photography show, planning a photo challenge with some wonderful and thought provoking suggestions from our Instagram followers... Strap in folks, it's a wild ride.   https://www.instagram.com/sunny16podcast/  

On this weeks show we're delighted to be joined by Roberto Martinez Jimenez to talk about being a young film shooter, finding communities, and his new photobook amongst many other things!   Find Rob at https://www.instagram.com/acrosstheroll/  

Technology conspired against us this week - first off Ade and Clare's initial show just didn't record properly and then Graeme and Jasper's conversation was haunted by some digital goblins. Luckily, Ade and Clare managed to pull some of their recording from the ashes, and the audio goblins on the insert mostly just go away, so that's nice!   Find Jasper and his work here: https://www.instagram.com/jtheokauth/?hl=en

It's a host catch up this week, with John visiting a haunted house and being too afraid to admit he saw a ghost, Clare making secret movies and Ade filming his family, hopefully not secretly. Oh, and did we mention that Rachel has kindly brought the newest Sunbeam into the world? Well she has! We haven't started her induction program just yet, but give it a few weeks and we'll have her shooting film and podding like a pro.   We also have a conversation with Ruth Folkard and Hamish Gill about the upcoming Photography show in the UK, and in particular the Analogue Spotlight part of it, which features a lot of stuff to interest us film shooters.   And, as if that wasn't already enough, we've got some great listener emails and Cheap Shot's Challenge pics rolling in! What a week!     Photography show links: 20% Discount code is SUNTPS21 Analogue Spotlight programme: https://www.photographyshow.com/talks-and-demos/free-talks-demos?&sortby=customfield_3205%20asc&filters.STREAM=analogue-spotlight-ijem

Whilst the hosts are away on well earned holidays, making films and having babies (huge congratulations to Rachel on the birth of her daughter!) we thought we'd share with you the series of interviews Clare had when out at the Experimental Photography Festival.   Links: Experimental Photo Festival: https://en.experimentalphotofestival.com/ Gisle Nataas http://nataas.com/ Felicita Russo http://www.felicitarusso.it/en/ Cristina Fontsare https://www.cristinafontsare.com/

On this weeks show it's a proper treat to have both Clare back from her trip to Spain to attend the Experimental Photography Festival, and Rachel back with us for probably her last pre-motherhood appearance! And John and Graeme are there as well, because someone has to press record and stop.   Lots of festival chat from Clare, photographic preparations before going into hospital with Rach,  John has been on an interesting workshop this week exploring new ways of getting art out in the world, and Graeme went for a walk - we've all had a mad old time of it.   https://en.experimentalphotofestival.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCh4QtDhYpTu4rqb1PAIXZAQ https://www.instagram.com/claremariebailey/?hl=en Polaroid Now book: https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/9781797201375?gC=5a105e8b&gclid=CjwKCAjwmK6IBhBqEiwAocMc8iTKeyvcdvvtnNNv_A2l943m-fWW9xeASfGK2zz4rqKMnX8U7C4WBhoCiXAQAvD_BwE
