REFLECTIONS is a short-form feature within The Photowalk podcast, offering thoughtful observations on a creative life and the themes that we often discuss on Fridays, including perfectionism, impostor syndrome, comparison, confidence, and more. It’s a pause at the start of the week to recalibrate, recorded in the studio between the walks. Each Monday, you’ll find Reflections on The Photowalk podcast feed, providing a creative reset to start the week. From Tuesday to Friday, it continues exclusively on our member-supported channel, The Extra Mile, for those who walk a little further with us. Trigger warning: Caravanners, sorry! My sincere thanks to Arthelper, who sponsor this show, plus our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.

#503 The Scotland Retreat Special 2025
Recorded on the 2025 Scotland Photowalk Retreat, this episode takes you to the Highlands’ finest locations, including Black Water, Glen Affric and the wide, quiet sweep of Loch Maree. You’re invited to become the eleventh member of our retreat, as you join us to walk, eat, and share stories together. Hear how we embraced the use of film cameras to work together in the Inverness Darkroom, watching our images bloom in the darkroom trays, and explored how words can shape our pictures with writer Merryn Glover. It’s part travel diary, part creative gathering; a record of what happens when you put a small group of photographers, writers and wanderers together in the Highlands, and let Scotland do the rest. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.

#502 Unlock the way you see
Today, I walk in London with the philosophical YouTuber Sean Tucker, who shares his thoughts on what makes great street photography and the deeper philosophies behind the genre. Along the way, he talks about what he’s learned from years of making pictures and teaching others to see more clearly. Also joining us is Valérie Jardin, street photographer and mentor, in Teach Me Street. She answers questions about the art of candid photography and offers practical advice on how to approach it with confidence. Also from the mailbag, Michael Mixon reflects on the future while photographing in his parents’ home, and Phil Paine shares a newly self-published photographic journal after a career spent in television. Mark Mackay experiments with seeing the world as if through a camera without ever lifting one, while Mike Miller explores the surprising similarities between streets photographed with people and those without. There’s news of our new end-of-year competition, and we have a fresh one-word assignment. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.
