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.

Decent YT photography channels not focused on gear? (alien.top)

Apologies if this gets asked allot. Absolutley done with watching my regular YT photography channels, I just don't give a shit about new gear anymore, awful clickbait thumbnails & titles are getting worse, and the tribal nature between big brand fanboys in comment sections is boring. I want to remove myself from this part of the photography world to stop that feeling of always needing to upgrade.

Any YT channels out there just focusing on the process & art of photography?

I cannot recommend enough the channel EYExplore. He's a great working photographer based in Tokyo. His photography and general discussion are engaging. But his most impressive trait is his ability to talk through his thinking while he's shooting. He is incredibly clear and cogent in real time about his choices for exposure and composition while shooting on the street.

His videos have a relaxing quality to them. For me the most fun is the shock from the locals when a Polish man in a shellsuit starts speaking fluent Japanese.
