What’s the secret to lasting friendships? How does queer community show up through the ebbs and flows of life? And what’s the REAL story behind the “YMCA” song? In the first episode of Silver Linings, The Old Gays dive into an essential part of queer life: chosen family. They discuss the vital love, support, and sense of belonging that community provides, especially during life's toughest moments. They open up about what “queer” means to them, how chosen family has impacted their lives, and how to maintain close bonds over time–including their love for each other! “We’ve come a long way, baby.” Family isn’t just what you’re born with; it’s the people who show up, shape you, and stick around.

Welcome to the Visual Storytelling podcast. Let’s discuss the differences between SLR and Mirrorless cameras. You may be in the market for a new camera, and can’t decide whether to buy a DSLR or mirrorless camera, or simply wish to understand the difference between the two. Well, in short, SLR cameras have a mirror that bounces the picture up to you, whereas with a mirrorless camera you're seeing what the sensor sees. In this episode I take a deeper look into the positives and negatives of both. If you’ve enjoyed this podcast, and would like to listen to more topics, just like this one, then why not consider following the Visual Storytelling Podcast, so as not to miss out on, not only new episodes, but catch up on previous episodes you may have missed, or simply wish to listen to again.

Welcome to the Visual Storytelling podcast. In this episode I discuss the disadvantages of telephoto lenses. Don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom as I also touch upon some of the advantages and their key benefits. If you’re in the market for a telephoto lens, my recommendation would be to try before you buy. Do your due diligence before hand, understand why you need one and then research the best telephoto that suits your requirements, then hire one over the course of a few days to see whether you were right. This way you save yourself a lot of time and money.
