What is your favourite genre?

I voted for others. In fact, I like Street photography which I think not belong to People.

Voted for other. I'm a complete astrophotography junkie at the moment, don't have much interest in doing anything else, and it didn't seem to fit in anywhere else.

I put other.
A year ago I would have said landscape , no question.
There are many better at landscape than me and more dedicated. I enjoy any reason to get out in the landscape with an appreciative eye in good light, but in hindsight I was coming back with examples of things that had already been done before only better.

I stumbled on to urban environment photography then architectural , from that an eye for shape and form then the occasional abstract.
It is probably the opportunities for greater self expression I find in these areas, or rather finding something where I have more to say that is more my own that has given me a fresh passion for photography.

I got sick of friends and family with false smiles and overall awkwardness in front of the camera. Of course they were never really that happy with the results either, usual stuff, 'your picture made me look fat'...etc.

"No Aunty Mabel, it's the massive amounts of fat you have due to your diet entirely of McDonalds that makes you look fat...."

(Best said from a distance of course).

Next time snapping family pics whiel people arae getting ready snap off some frames then do teh "cheese" thin, then snap off a few more as they are relaxing. Some of the before / after are liley to be the best, especially with some judicious cropping.
