  • Enjoying the podcast

    Really enjoying this photography podcast. Casual conversation format is working well, so you don’t need to be watching a video. I do most of my podcast listening while driving, so this has been nice.

  • Great Photography Discussion

    Photography is a difficult subject to cover in a podcast (e.g. without showing any photos) but Jeffery and Michael are doing a good job by discussing things like motivation, personal interests, creative challenges and gear - I hope they’ll keep it up!

  • A welcome addition to the landscape photography podcast lineup

    So far so good for this laid back landscape photography podcast. Both Michael and Jeffrey have a general chit chat about the craft and with a gap in my podcast list left by Creative Banter, Shutter Nonsense has a similar relaxed “shoot the breeze” theme but at the same they bring their own unique opinions and experiences. Well worth a listen in my opinion.

  • What a start!

    I’m so impressed with how polished and well paced the first show was.

    The podcast medium is tough for me with photography content. I’ve tried to regularly listen to several but I find the format difficult to stick with given the subject.

    This was refreshing. A casual discussion that covered interesting topics and kept the conversation moving forward. I’m excited to see where they go with this new venture.
