Phil Monahan Podcast: A Great Chance for Feedback

[brian schiele]

This is a small part of what I have been doing lately.  
I have had a lot of great feedback on these and other images, on an artistic level but never an editorial one.

These are a part of a project I have been working on for almost two years now, and if you can, I’d love some feed back on.  You can see the rest of it on Flickr,
On the Fly…

Thanks,
Brian

[Zach Matthews]

Wow, there is some amazing stuff here! Zach, here are a couple of images that I would love to get some feedback on:

California Corbina

Fishing the Slot

[matt boutet]

Here’s one vert & one horiz shot.

[Bryan Gregson]

Cool images fellas!

WOW…This is too good of an offer to pass up, I’ll toss a few into the pot.

Thanks for the opportunity!!

[Zach Matthews]

Bryan –

That third shot, particularly, is really, really cool.

Zach

[Bryan Gregson]

Thanks Zach. The colors of the fish up there are well worth the hike.

[Eric DeWitt]

And a pheasant hunt just for fun.

[Henry Gilbey]

Wow, there is some outstanding stuff on this post, so cool to see……

Is it cheating to put images up here that have already been used on covers ? Phil might have to be kinder then !! As an aside, I would be really interested to learn more about how somebody like Phil picks cover shots – I have spoken with a couple of editors over here before and in truth came away none the wiser………….sometimes I am really pleased with how they have used a shot of mine on a cover, especially when I did not “see” the image as a cover, and sometimes I am not quite sure if that makes sense.

Here goes a few (and Zach, please feel free to remove them if this goes against your original request) :

[Matt Tucker]

Since Phil has some experience outside of the fly-fishing mags, I thought I would throw a couple of different whitetail photos up.  If the podcast is going to be solely limited to fly-fishing, just delete this post.

Thanks,
Matt Tucker

TOC Shot:

I’ll throw up a few wildlife/non fly fishing related images as well.  Again, like Matt said, Zach if you and Phil want to keep things fly fishing related only, or feel these images are too many to include, feel free to delete this post.

Hey Henry –

Any chance you could post those cover images again in a larger resolution, or just send them to my email address at ZachMatthews@gmail.com?

[Eric DeWitt]

One more… might not be perfect, but it’s one of my first goes at off camera flash.

[J A Y M O R R]

Very nice Eric!

[Adam McDowell]

Amateur stuff straight from the camera, I give you permission to rip it up, I need pro advice

[Henry Gilbey]

Zach – I will upload a few to you if that helps.

[Zach Matthews]

Hey Henry –

Would it be possible to email them?

[john michael white]

Eric – I’ll second that.

[Henry Gilbey]

Zach – I can email them, but if it’s any help, I don’t use FTP for any of my clients – I use “You Send It”, it’s completely foolproof and easy to use. I believe sending smaller files with it is free, but I pay for the ability to upload large folders of photos etc. Upload the photos your end and then the client gets an email with a link from where they can download the photos. And I can also track when if and when stuff has been downloaded.

I will sort some of those covers for you after I have processed a shoot that needs to go out.

Guys –

We recorded the show last night.  I am still editing Gary Loomis’s podcast, so it will be a bit before I get this one hosted.  I may release these two and a couple more around Christmas/New Years and in the weeks following, as I get them edited.  Both Gary and Phil’s shows clocked in at over an hour so I need to do some cutting.

Zach

[Neal Osborn]

Zach, why cut the show length?
