Aman Chokshi - Photography from the South Pole

<p>How our interests in life inspire our photographic journey is an important ingredient that helps forge who we are as photographers. As such, I had an awesome time talking with these week's guest on episode 267 of the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen podcast about how he mixes his study of science with his passion for photography.</p> <p>I was joined by a photographer and astrophysicist living at the South Pole - <a href='https://www.instagram.com/aman_chokshi/'>Aman Chokshi</a>.</p> <p>We also had a great co-host his week, Rajesh Jyothiswaran, who helped to set-up this conversation, which was not easy considering the logistics of internet access at the South Pole!
