0:00.0	This is a body in X and welcome to the Candid Frame.
0:14.0	I want to welcome the many new listeners who have recently discovered the show via my friend
0:19.4	Ted Forbes at the Art of Photography podcast.
0:23.0	Ted was kind enough to recommend TCF to his listeners, and it's allowed many of you to discover
0:28.5	us for the very first time. You'll find hundreds of great interviews in our archive, and one of the
0:34.6	easiest ways I can suggest to you to access all of them is to download
0:39.1	the Candid Frame app. Available for iOS, Android, and Windows Mobile. It makes it possible to
0:45.7	stream or download every episode of the show, and it's all for free. So check it out and download
0:52.1	it today.
1:10.0	And for those of you who have been around for a while, I also recommend that you check out the TCF Flickr Group and the YouTube channel, where you can not only share your work with other listeners, but you may be showcased on the videos that I release there each week.
1:21.0	You'll find links to this and a lot more in the show notes or on the Candid Frame website. Now if there's something that I'm as passionate about as much as photography, it's

2:03.5	And that's where we began our conversation.
2:11.6	First of all, thank you for having us.
2:12.9	Thank you.
2:20.3	Your podcast has been a constant presence in our day-to-day life for the past few years. And it's just, I have to pinch myself just thinking that I'm talking to you right now.
2:26.3	It's amazing.
2:28.3	But I think, tried as it may sound, it started when I was a child.
2:37.0	You know, I was very introverted and insecure and animals were the one thing that I would connect to right away.
