Posted at 04:44h, 30 OctoberThis was one of the most enjoyable episodes. I usually don’t like interview episodes of any podcast but the conversation between you and Oded was so insightful and really struck me on an emotional level. This conversation got me thinking about finding story and emotion in images and scenes and got me energized to make new pictures. Thank You.

Posted at 09:52h, 30 OctoberI’m also not a big fan of podcast interviews with photographers, but Oded is a very creative and truly involved with his subjects. I personally struggle with keeping motivated in my photography. On this subject I think others might be interested in a new book by Tom and David Kelley, the founders of IDEO. It’s called Creative Confidence: Unleashing the Creative Potential Within Us All. I’ve found it helps with approaching photography in an innovative way.
Thanks for your work, Martin.

Posted at 03:30h, 02 NovemberMartin, your interview with Oded was informative and transformative. I’ve been struggling with my images and knew that something was often “missing” but I didn’t know what that was until listening to your conversation with Oded today. Thank you for inviting him to your podcast to share his wisdom about visual storytelling. I purchased his C&V eBook and look forward to putting into practice what I learned today!
