How this list was compiled

A list of 109 photography group names written by Wheel of Teams on 2026-10-03 and filed in five groups. The line printed under a pun says what its camera term means; each was read on 2026-10-03 in an English Wikipedia article (Aperture, F-number, Bokeh, Golden hour, Shutter speed, Long-exposure photography, Depth of field, Exposure, Viewfinder, Darkroom, Macro photography, Film speed, Zoom lens, Wide-angle lens, Panning, Vignetting, Lens flare, Bracketing, Tripod, Contact print), licensed CC BY-SA 4.0. A line (____) in a name stands for the name of your town or school. None was taken from a camera, lens, film or phone brand, a photographer, an app or a site. Each name was searched on Wikipedia the same day, and a name found there as an organization, a show, a book, a song or an album was taken out. Plain words are shared widely, so a group somewhere may already use one of these names. Compared the same day with every other list on this site: no name is repeated. Nothing was checked against a trademark register. Licence: own work
