TWiT+ Club Shows 727

It’s Photo Time with Leo Laporte and Chris Marquardt, and this month’s theme is “Spacious”! From snowy Black Forest roads to a lone bicyclist at Coney Island, the hosts discuss how negative space, fog, and clever composition transform ordinary scenes into visually open masterpieces.

🌟 Quick Highlights:
- Photo Assignment Critiques: Chris reviews listener images, explaining minimalism and the power of scale and contrast to create spaciousness.
- Holiday Talk: German vs. American Christmas traditions, reusable trees, and cherry-schnapps Black Forest cake feature alongside memories of Kodak Brownie ornaments.
- Latest Gear: Canon’s R6 Mark III, a bright 45mm lens, Leica’s monochrome Q3, and Sony’s battery-sipping A7V get quick reviews. Plus, watch out for Fuji XE5 strap issues.
- Fun DIY: Ever built a camera from a flatbed scanner or a computer mouse? Hear how some enthusiasts did—with wild results.
- Community Q&A: Tips for defeating harsh sun at anime conventions and some caution about “Minolta” cameras at big box stores.
