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?

Back in university, our professor gave us an assignment of making a photo series, titled "home". Everyone got very philosophical and made elaborate projects on the meaning of "home". The professor was not impressed, and told us to do it again. And again. And again.

By the 6th time we were told to re-do it, everyone kind of ran out of ideas, and started just taking photos of things in their house: their desk, the clothing rack, the bed they didn't bother making, the shadows on the wall.

The professor seemed rather smug. "Now you get it."
