S4E14 - Lamar & Tom Talk Fine Art Photography

<p><strong>What is the difference between “fine art photography” and “taking pictures”?</strong> Nope, not your usual topic for our podcast. Plus, we’ve got pictures to share with you! </p><p>Lamar Roth, co-host of <strong>Getting to 3rd Space with Lamar &amp; Tom</strong>, is a fine art photographer. He currently has a show going on in Newton, Kansas and often has opportunities to display his work both in Kansas and around the country, and continuously through his website at <a href="http://rothimages.com"><u>rothimages.com</u></a>. </p><p>In this podcast we are taking a break from the usual “stuff” going on around us to focus on the beauty of Lamar’s fine art photography and some of the stories behind the images. We think you’ll enjoy learning about Lamar’s journey from a Brownie camera to digital photography and seeing some of his incredible work. </p><p><strong>Don’t Skip This Paragraph - It’s Important! </strong>If you typically listen to our podcast, you’ll want to scoot over to YouTube to watch this podcast because we’ll be featuring some of Lamar’s photos.

You can participate through this <a href="https://forms.gle/5NQakn6bgeXpm2us5"><u>Google Forms Survey</u></a>. </p><p>There you will find two kindness questions we’d like you to consider and then respond to:</p><ul><li><p><strong>What is an act of kindness you’ve received that made a difference to you?</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>What is an act of kindness you have done which you hope changed another person’s life?</strong></p></li></ul><p>What do we do with the acts we learn about in this survey? We save them and feature them in our Thanksgiving show each year…anonymously unless you prefer we use your name.</p><p>Finally, please share this survey because an act of kindness shared begets others.</p><p><strong>How We Check Ourselves</strong></p><p>Fact Checking: Because there are a lot of things happening…some true, some false, some unbelievable…we use the following fact checking sites.
