Thank you and Farewell from The Image Doctors
Friends,
After nearly six years and over 150 episodes, we’ve come to the conclusion that it’s time to retire our microphones and bring the curtain down on The Image Doctors podcast. This is not a decision that we made lightly, but it is something that was in our best interests. We would like to thank all of you who have followed us from our humble beginnings in December of 2005 and also those of you who maybe just recently discovered us.
We never expected The Image Doctors to be such a popular production within the photography community. We are especially thankful to all of the great photographers who have joined us over the years to help enlighten our listeners on exciting ways to foster their interest in photography. Even more than that, we are humbled by the sheer number of our listeners who have written us or posted on our Facebook Page to ask questions, suggest topics, or offer their thanks for our tidbits. Without you, we’d never have made it this long. Finally, we’d like to thank Nikonians.org for their steadfast commitment to delivering The Image Doctors podcast free to everyone around the world.
We wish everyone who supported us the very best going forward and good light.
-Jason Odell & Rick Walker

Thank you so much. I learned a lot over the years from your podcasts. I will surely miss your voice and your knowledgeable insights.
I appreciate what you guys both gave to the photography community. I have learned so much from your podcasts and have enjoyed the workshops we've shared. Thanks for everything!
Hi Rick and Jason,
I've been with you guys since almost the very beginning of your Podcasts. Around that time I was going through what some would call clinical depression and one day I stumbled onto your Podcast site. I came to depend on them for my sanity, thank you!
I'm from the old school that resisted DIGITAL over FILM. I still have my old Nikon F2-AS which I'll never part with. It's built like a tank. I love how it feels in my hands, and I view it as an art form in and of itself. Beautifully engineered. It hasn't seen film for many years. I know that it's probably silly of me, but I want to keep it in its near-mint condition.
I decided that I would teach myself digital photography and would not fall behind this relatively new technology. And, although I do not yet own a Digital SLR (due to the lack of funds), you guys have helped me make the transition from film to digital. If I had the bucks, it would be the Nikon D-700 for me. It sounds like the right tool.
I have learned a lot about digital photography by listening to your Podcast. You'll be missed!

This is indeed sad news!
Many thanks again Rick & Jason for all the hard work over the years, I have learned so much. Your ability to inform mixed with a gentle humor will be greatly missed

Jason and Rick,
Thank you for your excellent entertaining podcast. Listen all episodes from 1 until 151. Love specially the 11th retro version!
Was able to meet your both at the ANPAT7, and maybe we will meet again in the near future.
