145: Michael Strickland - Large Format Film Photography of the Great Plains

Welcome to Episode 145 of the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen podcast.    This week's episode features a large and medium format film photographer from western Kansas, Michael Strickland.    Michael transitioned from digital to film and hasn't looked back. He was featured in a really interesting Geekwire YouTube video showcasing why he made the switch, which really piqued my interest.    Michael and I covered a wide variety of topics this week, including: Photographing panoramas using film. Photographing the Great Plains.  Drum Scanning.  Portraying mood and emotion through photography. Platinum Palladium prints. and a lot more... Over on Patreon this week, Michael gives us some tips on how to get started in film photography.  Head over to patreon.com/fstopandlisten for more info on how you can support the podcast and get bonus content at the same time.     Before we get started, I wanted to remind listeners that my good friend Gary Randall still has some workshop openings for his 2020 Alaska photography workshops. You could not meet a nicer guy than Gary so I really think you'll love going with him to photograph bears on the Kenai Peninsula. Check it out by going to gary-randall.com!
