Legacy. Meaning. Fulfillment. In the end, these are all things most artists seek. When I think about my own photography, I would happily trade all the likes and follows on social media to be known for something I'm proud of.

Today's guest on the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen Podcast, Bruce Barnbaum, has over fifty years of photography under his belt and has recently undertook the process of revisiting his legacy and his work in the hopes of producing a book showcasing never-before seen images captured along his illustrious career. Having studied under Ansel Adams himself, Bruce is a well-known print-maker and book author, having sold over 100,000 copies of his book, The Art of Photography.

On this week's episode, we discuss:

How Bruce began his journey in photography all the way back in the 1960's.
The importance of conservation efforts and how they have guided Bruce's work.
How Bruce incorporated music into his early books.
Bruce's approach to composition.
Bruce's upcoming book project which will be a retrospective review of unreleased work from over five decades of photography.
And a lot more!
