Exploring the World Through the Lens: A Journey from the Cockpit to the Camera with Matt Jacob
08/12/23 • 86 min
This is a different episode of The MOOD Podcast, this time with me as the guest on Martin Bailey Photography's podcast.
We talk at length about my journey into photography, as well as some of the journeys I've taken through places like Mongolia, Uganda, Indonesia and many others, painting images of nomadic lifestyle with my stories and experiences.
From discussing technical aspects of photography to cherishing the beauty of human life, we cover a wide range of engaging topics. We delve into the technical use of light in capturing faces and cultures, and the experiences of photographing unique landscapes.
We also unravel the spiritual ties of different cultures and their deep-rooted beliefs, with stories about animist beliefs in Bromo Valley and the Japanese religion of Shintoism. This was a very enjoyable podcast with Martin and I look forward to speaking with him again, this time with roles reversed.

Beyond the Frame: Mindful Photography Unleashed - Moments of Mood, 1.3
Have you ever wondered how you can transform everyday life into something profoundly meaningful? How about using the art of photography to capture moments brimming with significance, not just images?
Mindful Photography is all about being present, connecting deeply with our environment, and finding beauty in the ordinary. It encourages us to form deeper connections with our subjects and environments, allowing us to reflect on our personal motivations, inspirations, and philosophies. I discuss the power of aligning our inner vision and values with our external expressions. This practice becomes much more than an art form; it's a gateway to a deeper appreciation of life and a profound connection to the world around us...
