Photography

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.

Has anyone else noticed that most photography forums outside of Reddit have some very opinionated, bitter arsch-holes as members? I cannot find a single forum outside of Reddit that offers positive / constructive criticism, just people who are toxic beyond belief...

This sadly isn't relegated just to photography but almost all hobbies and professions. There are a lot of insecure gate keepers who wish to keep newbies out and protect their fragile sense of falsely gained superiority. Thankfully there are also a lot of amazingly kind helpful people too if you look. But you can very be scared off unfortunately.
