Childress, TX is home to one great photographer and that would be Russell Graves, RussellGraves.com. I spent a half day with him yesterday and feel like I learned a lot from the experience.

I know that a lot of AgWired fans are pro photographers themselves or at least have a real interest in taking pictures so I hope you’ll really enjoy getting to know Russell and listening to our conversation about his work. Russell also teaches high school ag technology classes. He has a passion for his home state and looks at his work as a way to chronicle the rural lifestyle he grew up in so that current and future generations will still be able to enjoy it captured in pictures. If you take time to look through his pictures I’m sure you’ll see many that will make you think, “I’ve seen that same picture before (in your own life).” He could probably live anywhere he wants but he chooses to raise his children in a country environment and I applaud him for that decision.

Russell and I talk about equipment, software, work flow and why we love what we do and do what we love. I think this is a great conversation and I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for listening.
