    The Light Cafe is for photographers using Digital or Film cameras. We are here to promote learning and sharing with others who have a passion for photography. Besides the numerous critique threads, you will find discussions on Photoshop as well as the traditional darkroom. Studio equipment, items for sale and all the familiar items found in web forums. How are we different? You will not find the normal posting limitations other sites place, and this is not catered to people using dial up computer connections. You can post large images and numerous images per thread. This is especially beneficial for landscape and panoramic photography where the normal posting limits prevent others from seeing decent sized representations of your prints. Finally, offer honest critiques; "Great Shot" is not a critique.

  • People and Portraiture
    Forum for photo critiques and discussions concerning adult portraits and family portraits and heck, even pet portraits go in here. If your photograph contains nudity you are expected to indicate so in the title. i.e. "Hot Bikini Babe (Nudity warning)". This will warn in advance that there is nudity and will allow people to make a decision on whether to open the thread or not.

  • Everything Else, General photography, the "Catch All"
    What, you took a great picture that does not fit into any of the above categories? Like that infared flower shot...

    This is the place to put all other images, this includes your pet photography whose forum was recently merged with the general area.

  • Photography print and competition print critiques
    This forum is for you too show off final print versions of your images, too include digital mattes to hear opinions on your color choice/shape/size/crop etc. A great forum for feedback on club competition or fair/other competition print choices.

    Critics should be even more brutal than other forums, with as much detail as you can provide the artist. When given different versions of the same image, please go into detail on why you would select one version over another for competition submittal.
