It's what literally everyone has been waiting for, the creme de la menthe of informed opinions Rachel and Graeme making their views on the Pentax 17 known. Finally the you can all stop holding the front pages! 

Not just that, but Rachel has been inspired by a noted influencer to buy a new camera, Graeme has been shooting with a new and interesting lens, the Big Film Photowalk has happened, an insulted man has provided a new cheap shots challenge theme and Clare is at the cinema! It's all kicking off, I hope your sitting down to listen!

On this show Rachel is joined by the fabulous Billy Sanford to talk about what they've been up to over the festive period, their photography plans and hopes for 2024 and much more - there's plenty to talk about!

On this weeks show we address the issue that despite backing the Agent Shadow kickstarter to get his hands on a load of 35mm film, Ade doesn't own a 35mm camera, having sold them all last year. 

His co-hosts offer a variety of suggestions for what he should buy to rectify this issue, none of which he seems convinced by, hopefully you guys can do better!

Also on this show we launch the next round of the Cheap Shots Challenge!

Send in your suggestions for Ade and your Cheap Shots pictures to: sunny16podcast@gmail.com

On this weeks show we ramble broadly on about what it's been like to start interacting with other people photographically in the wake of the first photo walk since January 2020. 

A huge shout out to everyone we met on the day, especially all the people who we failed to mention on the show - it was lovely getting to see you all/watch many of you slowly turn bright pink!

On this weeks show we're delighted to be joined by Stephen Dowling of Kosmo Foto to hear all about his new line of film, Agent Shadow, and the Kickstarter that's launching it.

On this weeks (belated) show we hear how John's work in preparation for his collaborative exhibition is going, how Clare's work in preparation for her part in the Experimental Photography festival is proceeding, and how Graeme flooded his shed with fixer. Not everyone can be doing something great I guess. 

On top of that we have a great and thought provoking selection of emails to share with you.

On this weeks show Graeme is chatting in person with Dave Walker, all round lovely chap and smart dude, about using modern and easily available technology to solve some of the problems facing analogue photographers and his own project attempting to re-interpret the innards of old electronics based cameras!

On this weeks show we're joined by the mighty Mike Caputo to talk about his recently edited and published photography magazine which features a different photographer for each of the 50 US states sharing their work!

We also talk about Graeme's new enlarger, the trip he made with John to get it, and his pretty amazing Birthday camera.

Also, there was a surprise collection of listener content at the end of the show for Graeme, including a couple of very different but equally magical songs amongst many other kindnesses. A huge thank you to everyone who got in touch and sent something in, you are all far better people than we deserve to have listening!
