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.

I've been taking pictures for about almost 4 years. I used to uploaded on Instagram and Facebook so other people could see it. But right know with the Insta bad algorithm I'm trying to find what to do with my pictures, because I love sharing them. One option I thought was to print them and gift them, but thats a little expensive and I take too much photos. Also I was thinking on making a website for store them like a virtual gallery or maybe a blog, but I'm not sure if it worth the time.

What do you do with your photos?
And what could you recommend me to deal with this feeling?

Sorry if I'm a little vague with my feelings but its the first time I feel like that.

I'm in the same boat and I'm thinking of going for some sort of recognition /accreditation. I'm in the UK and we have the Royal Photographic Society who offer 3 levels of qualification, each requiring a portfolio photos that are tied together by a theme of your choice.

I like the idea of a project to get the creative juices flowing, and would enjoy some CC from a more technical audience than social media
