Storming My Brain: Audio Story Ideas

One of my earliest ideas for this audio news story was to find out from various photographers "What makes a great image?" This was the one question that I wanted answers to. Each photographer will without a doubt have his or her own unique perspective as to what it is that makes a great image. It is a simple question that goes to the depths of what photography is all about: the images. I'm still playing with this idea, and may want to put it on the back burner for now...I'm not sure.

I was also considering turning my focus to the technology side of photography and to report on what technology skills and knowledge is necassary for photographers today. As my interview with Karlo Gesner brought to my attention, photography, although it's more about skill and technique, there is an underlying acceptance that the field requires knowledge in technology, computers, software, and how to utilize the Internet to further your career.

Of these two storms of my brain, the latter seems the most significant for my beat. The former is more of a personal curiosity, but could surface in a project down the line.
