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.

Hey guys & gals. I’m looking for controversial topics and opinions for me to discuss on a podcast about the industry or as a creator. Give me your best! (Or I guess, worst?)

I bitched about an article on Petapixel about women’s photo grants, and PETA banned me from the comments. And I’m a woman 😀 I guess when I said I would never hire another female assistant ever they didn’t like that. In the photographic field, I found years ago you just need to put gender aside. Just be a person. And dont expect anything special just because you’re female. And to me, that includes women only contests and grants. Can you imagine the uproar there would be if there was a Men Only contest or grant?
