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?)

Any mention of Leica triggers Redditors pretty hard.

Anything at all political, like compare Pete Souza's images of Reagan and Obama with Trumps official images. (hope you like death threats)

"3D pop", some religiously believe in it, some consider it religious heresy.

Sensor size wars.

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?

I mean, I’m not surprised
