Lucinda Goodwin joins The Random Photography Show for a lively, late-night mix of photography news, community chat, and real-world shooting stories. The crew digs into printing and paper talk, camera quirks (including Pentax and Fuji chatter), social media strategy, and gig/festival shooting numbers—then wraps with detailed listener image critiques covering texture, composition, and editing choices. Expect laughs, practical takeaways, and plenty of inspiration to pick up your camera and shoot.
