A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Lately there has been a very bad weather where I am, so there is no color or anything eye catching outside. I really want to take photos but I dont know what. We dont have the money to travel, so I am stuck in the neighbourhood. Any ideas that I can take photos of?

Some in home ideas to help develop compositional and technical skills:

Water drops into colored water Running water Water drop reflections… try through glass Flowers Still life, veggies and fruit or other objects you are interested in Anything macro: insects, coins, food and food parts, smoke, i even did a series on dripping elmers glue, pencils, rubber bands… Pets Perspective challenges: toys, glassware, bottles, food Products: clothing, accessories, alcohol, glassware, shoes. People, if you have a willing accomplice: i saw a series of people in boxes that is quite interesting. One or two lights shown on anything, try different angles Depth of field practice with various lenses at various distances to internalize how dof changes with changing circumstances. Try various styles: flatlays, night, hanging objects, spinning objects, backlit, portrait.

So many options.
