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.

Photography as much as writing (I do both) suffer from the same problem: Everyone thinks he could do it. But only because you are able to hold a pen you do not become a gifted author and because you can press a shutter release button you still aren't a photographer. That's the misunderstanding people fall victim of and which diminishes the appreciation of our work. It might be sickening but I fear it is something we will have to live with.
