"I believe photographers should shoot what they want, not shoot what they get."

*    - Roberto Valenzuela*

"Skill in photography is acquired by practice and not by purchase."

*    - Percy W. Harris*

In this episode, Antonio dives into a bit of a rant about AI in photo editing, expressing his mixed feelings. He appreciates the convenience these tools offer but worries they’re stripping away the authenticity and skill that go into creating great photos. Antonio also talks about his recent street photography class and the joy of teaching others, even mentioning a beautiful day out shooting with his Fujifilm Instax camera.

Ward jumps in next, talking about his new Fujifilm XS20 camera. He talks about how well it performed at a rodeo event, praising the advanced autofocus and how easy it was to handle despite its compact size. Ward’s enthusiasm is contagious as he describes the buzz of getting those dynamic action shots, and how this new gear opened up new possibilities for his photography. He goes into detail about how the camera’s features, like the flippy screen and face detection, made capturing the fast-paced action much easier. Ward also shares his experience of learning to use the new camera on the go and how it helped him refine his skills.

This episode has Antonio in a bit of a ranting mood, while Ward’s excitement for his new camera gear shines through.
