I think a lot of communities start out as a single group for a wide range of content related to a topic like photography, including gear talk, photos, industry news, howtos, etc.... When they get to a certain size, discussions start getting lost in the flood of content and it makes sense to fork more specialized sub-communities.
Forking too early leads to a bunch of dead communities with a handful of posts.
