Welcome to episode 224 of the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen podcast!
This week on the podcast I was joined by Chris Murray, a professional full-time nature photographer living in Syracuse, New York. Chris' photography predominately features the the woods, lakes, mountains, and streams of New York State. Chris is a geologist by training and his lens is typically focused on quiet scenes of nature in his own backyard.
Chris and I discuss a variety of topics this week, including:
The connection between the study of natural sciences and nature photography.
The role that the history of our artform has on his work.
Copying other photographers work.
The difficulties of being a full-time artist.
And a lot more.

Here are the individuals that Chris recommended on the podcast:
Thomas Fleckenstein.
Jaume Llorens.
Nader Daii.
Matt Oliver.
Mark Bowie.
