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.

Oh no, the trend just shifted. Before orange/teal it was lifting the blacks to look milky and faded, before that it was using the colour curves in post to add wild shifts to the shadows to look like a holga. Now we are doing jpeg "recipes" by overcooking the white balance because it's easier to make everything look like a 7500k muddy sepia than composing colour, and putting on cheap diffusion filters even in the day time to turn $1000 lenses into $80 lenses that look "filmic" or like you touched the front element with greasy fingers.
Can you tell I don't like this trend? 😂 It's ironically why the price of Fujifilm second hand has doubled or more over the past two years. People think it's a Fujifilm colour thing. When you can do the urine filter style on literally any camera.
Can you give an example of the latest one you’re talking about?
Fujixweekly is the Bible for people trying to do that trend.
