In this episode we celebrate our recent guests, Janina Brocklesby, Neil Ridley and duo Demi and James, as well as updating you on all the recent Flash Masters developments in the Flash Masters community - and there has been a lot! We've had our minds blown with the feedback from you, the Flash Masters community, and we can't wait to share the exciting developments we've rolled out - like our live streams that are all about simplifying off-camera flash.
Prepare yourself as we venture into some contentious territories in the world of photography - and how they can affect photography awards. There's a lot of buzz in the community around a post questioning if sky replacement should be in the Flash Masters Awards, and we share our thoughts on this and the potential impact of AI in photography. Furthermore, we shine a light on the use of digital backgrounds, the effects of cloning out a soft box in a photograph, as well as blending two photographs taken at different times. And oh, we've got discussions about a new category for digital art, which could stir things up a bit, but hey, who doesn't love a little excitement?
To wrap up, our hearts are full of gratitude for every one of our guests and community members. Your unwavering support and active involvement in the Flash Masters community and the Flash Matters awards has been truly overwhelming. We can't stress enough the importance of keeping things real, staying motivated, and pushing boundaries for growth. So buckle up and get ready for a riveting session of the Flash Masters podcast that promises to be as thought-provoking as it is enlightening.
