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 all!

I will be doing a presentation on portraits for my university photography club soon. I thought I would read up on a book in preperation, perhaps written by a famous portrait photographer like Yousuf Karsh or Annie Leibovitz, but I'm having trouble finding what I'm looking for.

Any recommendations? Thanks!
