My two weeks in Beijing were filled with photo opportunities and travel challenges. In this week's podcast I talk about my experiences in Beijing, the Summer Olympics, how well my packing survived, a peek inside the Main Press Center, and more. It's a fun show.
Monthly Photo Assignment
Competition is this month's photo assignment. With the Olympics dominating the sports scene this month, competition seems like a good topic. Your event can be more personal, and doesn't even have to be sports related. You can read more about how to submit on our Submissions page. Deadline for entry is August 31.

Interesting press room podcast. I would like a followup about what it was like working with photographers from all over the world. What did you teach them and what did you learn from them would be informative. How about workflow observations?

As Bill rightfully mentions The Digital Story PODcast is a great one, explaining everything very clearly. Most of the things you talk about I will try out after listening. Thanks to your explanations I now own both a 50mm F1.8 and 85mm F1.8 and let me tell you: I love them! After your raving review of the Sigma 50mm 1.4 I will definitely give that one a try at the store.
Yesterday evening I listened to 4 shows straight, while riding my bicycle home and while working afterwards.
Also, I thing I'd like to add: workflow... Mine has drastically improved since listening. I've been a bit doubtful about Lightroom, but after the explanations in the PODcast I'll download the 30-day trial, and try it out.
Thanks a lot for everything... I'll add some of my pictures to the Flickr-group soon...
