The Bigger Picture podcast: Scott Gray talks to Mike Trow

The World Photography Organisation steps into the world of podcasts! Welcome to The Bigger Picture, a podcast series where the World Photography Organisation talks to leading figures in the photography industry who have shaped the medium into what it is today. The Bigger Picture aims to promote conversations around photography and facilitate the meeting of creative minds so innovative and exciting imagery is celebrated.
