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.

There are some amazing photographers on YouTube that do very well in their business. Many of them are also gear reviewers and sometimes the line is blurred.
It’s a matter of picking who works best for you. I think we all get a little annoyed at the fascination with gear but that’s how they make their money.
Funny thing is, there are also a few "not very good photographers" in youtube that post really good content.
I always make a point of reading the manual for my new bodies, etc but it's almost guaranteed the following week I will be searching for how to use the self timer or use bracketing, or specific settings in a flash and such, because I will already have forgotten.
Youtube it's a brilliant resource.
