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.

Honestly my pet peeve is people acting like I’m supposed to treat Instagram as a gallery and not as a study.
Who said I thought it was art just because I posted it and it’s film? Why is it “funny” that others in the same hobby enjoy seeing it?
Comments like this honestly just come off as bitter. I feel like you’re in the camp of people who bought a Sony a7iii and then never post anything anywhere and then complain that “photography is dead” or something, despite them choosing not to participate in an active community out of fear of not being seen as an “artist” for 0.001 seconds
