A Photo Essay of Sorts: My Search For Forgotten People

and check the discussion that followed.

Could we start a photojournalism category? The idea would be to post a series of photos and text on a subject of interest to you. The skies the limit for subjects. For those old enough to remember, think about our own modest little Life magazine. Do a report on a person, an industry, an event, a social issue or whatever. The emphasis isn't on a single photo. It's a series of images selected to tell a story of the poster's choice. The selection and ordering are important. So is the text included.

What do you think? If we get reponses here expressing interest, we can look at setting something up.

Mike,

I like your idea and would take an interest in it.

I think the categories are fine now, maybe still too many. Personally I kook a the threads tab to see what is new. If you make a photo story it can go under the image discussion thread.

Just post your photo story in the image forum and it will be fine.

You want a new category for your own interest but have completely stomped on the other categories. All the previous genre specific posts are now lumped in together and it is basically impossible (without spending ages scrolling down through them) to find old or all posts of a specific genre.

Everyone wants threaded view so that conversations relating to one post are kept together. The same applies to posts to specific genre categories. It keeps them together for logical reference. Anything else is totally illogical.

No point for me to continue here...
