Volume 28When storing your travel pictures, or frankly any pictures, do you use local storage mediums (hard drives, etc) or online backup services like Google Photos?

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

Aidenn from the Discord server asks, When storing your travel pictures, or frankly any pictures, do you use local storage mediums (hard drives, etc) or online backup services like Google Photos? Or, do you use other forms of backup? When you record episodes, what type of microphone do you use?

I have a multi-layered approach to backing up my photos, and it is pretty similar to what I use for my podcast episodes. All my original RAW images are on a RAID array on my desktop. That is backed up to the cloud on Backblaze.

All of my process and edited images, which is a much smaller subset, are on Smugmug. You can view all of those images by going to my website.

The microphone I use to record the podcast is a Sure SM7B microphone. It is a pretty popular professional microphone.

The quality of a laptop or smartphone microphone isn’t good enough to do a serious podcast, and the cost of a microphone really isn’t that much.
