    I set up a (free, so far!) Photography Membership Site a few months ago, with no hurry to expand or monetize. We are 10 members now and over 210 photos posted. The aim is to post then make constructive criticism on other members’ photos.
    It is proving a very positive experience and several members are very excited about their progress and the Monthly “On Target” Photography Training Course that I am editing.
