Episode 82: Quintin Lake Returns

Jeff Carlson & Kirk McElhearn — Fri, 11 Dec 2020 02:00:00 -0800

When we last checked in with Quintin Lake, he was walking the coastline of the United Kingdom and photographing what he found. In September 2020 he finished the trip: 6,835 miles (11,000 kilometers) and 179,222 photos. As he continues to edit his backlog and make and sell prints, we caught up with him to talk about the experience.
