We get pretty excited when we are in the car driving to a destination, so bear with us on this one! We drove from De Pere, Wisconsin and moved Eastward to the town of Kewaunee and then north to Sturgeon Bay and Cave Point County Park. We wanted to talk about the origins of this podcast and why getting off the couch and outside of your home is important to all of us as artists. There is so much inspiration in the areas that we live in and if we can, its great to hit the road and see new places we never knew were there! We are still learning… We hope that this episode is still as easy to listen to as the last two. We recorded this episode while driving down the highway. We used a Zoom H4n field recorder between the two of us to capture our conversation. We will be experimenting with another mic setup in the future for cleaner audio. We love the idea of recording on the road since that is how this all really started. At home we have a greatly controlled environment. In the car, not so much. We still hope you enjoy it! Notes from this episode. The origins of Photo Drives. We discuss our first photo adventures or “drives” that we took and how it inspired us to start this podcast. Get out there. Grab a map, go online, take a walk, hit the road and just search for something new or return to places you have always loved. There is so much beauty around where we live. Inspiration is attached to motivation. Sometimes we feel like we have seen it all or we have run the areas we live in dry. It is up to ourselves to learn to appreciate the places we live and not always rely on extremely high expectations. We are two wild and crazy guys. Seriously we get a little goofy in this episode. Meet up with friends or make new ones. Short road trips and meet ups are a great way to catch up with friends or even make new ones. Let your friends inspire you. Sometimes we can get inspiration from seeing how others see the world we live in. Not just through the lens, but through friendships as well. What to bring with when you hike. Sometimes the simplicity of one lens vs a backpack can be refreshing yet challenging for your creativity. Make an effort to find the time to shoot for fun. We can easily get distracted by life and client work. It’s important to get out there and photograph what we really love. Images discussed in this episode.
