268: Rubin - Eight Useful Ways to Describe and Measure Photography

How we talk about photography can often be wrought with controversy, hurt feelings, and leaves a lot to be desired for those seeking authentic feedback. When I came across the writings of today's guest on Episode 268 of the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen podcast, Michael Rubin (or just Rubin for short), it was eye-opening for me. Rubin has created eight useful ways to describe and measure your photos I was really excited to get him onto the podcast to talk about his ideas for how to discuss photographic artwork.

On this week's episode, we also discuss:

• Photographic Haiku,
• What the Zen Arts can teach us about photography,
• Rubin's approach to editing his photographs,
• Rubin's podcast, Everyday Photography, Every Day,
• And a lot more!

Other topics discussed on the podcast this week:

• Workshops with Rubin.
• Enter the Natural Landscape Photography Awards.
• Support the podcast on Patreon.

Here is who Rubin recommended on the podcast this week:

• Jerry Uelsmann.
• John Sexton.

If you enjoyed today's episode with Rubin, you can catch our bonus episode on Patreon where we talk about Wabi Sabi - the traditional Japanese world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection.

I love hearing from the podcast listeners! Reach out to me via Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter if you'd like to be on the podcast or if you have an idea of a topic we can talk about. We also have an Instagram page, a Facebook Page, and a Facebook Group - so don't be shy!

Did you also know we have listener after-parties on Twitter Spaces? This is a great opportunity to interact with other listeners, guests, and the host (when I can) regarding your thoughts on the episode.
