    Winter is right around the corner, and that sadly means many of us will put our cameras in the closet for the rest of the year. Many photographers choose to put their hobby to rest during the winter months... However, there are numerous ways you can stay busy with photography in the off-season, which I'll outline in this episode!

    Apologies for the sub-par audio. I realized at the last minute that I didn't have an episode scheduled and I was out of the office, so I recorded this while in the field. I'll do better next time!
