I really appreciate your broadening the scope of LULA with regard to “the philosophy and techniques of photography”. And your interest in “cognition, perception, ecology, and examining the why or poetry of photography from a less conventional angle”. These are what make this site lively and interesting. There are 1001 pretty similar sites on the kit but far, far fewer on philosophy, aesthetics and the best of current work among talented photographers and artists today. Those are what bring me here.
Happy New Year!
