Ep 275 - Elemental Landscape Photography with Tirta Winata
Tirta Winata started photographing with his father's DSLR in Jakarta and eventually earned a Master's degree in art creation from the Jakarta Institute of Arts. His practice began as personal meditation, a way to experience solitude and freedom in nature, and gradually evolved into something he calls elemental photography.
The idea is straightforward but demanding. Tirta isolates a single element of nature in its environment, portraying it as if untouched by human intervention, the way a portrait captures a person's identity. Much of this work is minimalist black and white, shaped partly by Indonesia's long rainy season and his partial colorblindness.
In this episode Tirta talks about using constraint to expand compositional options, the challenges of applying minimalism to wider scenes, and how Indonesia's climate and infrastructure shape what's possible in the field. He also shares a delayed flight in Bali that led to a waterfall image that caught gallery attention, and his frustration with social media in an era of generative AI.
I hope you enjoy the show!

Ep 274 - Yellowstone Wildlife & Wilderness with Tom Murphy
Tom Murphy grew up on a 7500 acre cattle ranch in western South Dakota, which taught him animal behaviour, a love of wide open land, and a firm conviction that chasing cows wasn't his future. He's been photographing Yellowstone since 1975 and has skied across the park three times, including a solo 175 mile, 14 day crossing in 1985.
Few photographers know Yellowstone as intimately as Tom does. He was the first person licensed to lead photography tours in the park, has donated work to the Old Faithful and Mammoth visitor centres, and has published multiple books including the Emmy nominated Silence and Solitude and the four volume Seasons of Yellowstone series.
In this episode Tom talks about his fieldwork process, giving wildlife the space to tell their own stories, and what five decades of backcountry travel in one of the world's great wilderness areas has taught him about patience, presence and the natural world.
I hope you enjoy the show!

Ep 273 - Mastering Fine Art Landscape Photography & Film with Dani Watson
Danielle Watson spent more than 20 years in professional sport as a tennis coach and biomechanics specialist before burnout brought him to a stop. She walked into a camera store in Melbourne one quiet afternoon, bought a DSLR without a plan, and photographed her eight week old kelpie. The images travelled further than expected and something clicked.
The years since have been serious and deliberate. A Master's degree pushed her well beyond technical skill into meaning, artist statements and immersive presentation. Working alongside Ken Duncan taught her discipline, storytelling and the responsibility of making work someone might choose to live with for years. Film and a Hasselblad system slowed her process and sharpened her intent.
In this episode Dani talks about co-founding Irid Gallery to present limited edition fine art photography at art fairs, moving from grand dramatic vistas toward atmosphere and aerial abstraction, and why she now makes far fewer images than she used to.
I hope you enjoy the show!
