Dealing with Photo Storage Pains

January 13, 2025 By Nasim Mansurov 34 Comments

Libor_Camera Trap_Photo by Vladimir Cech

Although I feel much more comfortable behind the viewfinder of a camera than in front of the lens, I recently made an exception. It was while shooting one of the episodes of our upcoming Online Workshop with photographer Vladimír Čech Junior. In the photo below, I'm playing the role of...
