Title: Need advise on photo content
Post by: 126andy on September 12, 2011, 05:14:31 PM
I am having a problem putting a photo that I am submitting to a contest into a category and thought that maybe you would be able to give me an idea. My family and I disagree on where I should list it, the choices are: People, Animals/Nature, Flowers and Gardens, Landscapes, Structures/Still Life and Abstractions/Manipulations.
I am leaning towards the Animal & Nature category but they are saying that maybe it should be in with the Landscapes. Thanks for any help.

I don't see any obvious animals, so I would lean towards landscape.  What do you think the subject of the image is?  That should help narrow it down.

Technically it's either Nature or Landscapes I think. Probably miore Nature than Landscapes, but it depends a bit on what your intention is. If it was my image I'd probably try to crop it so that there wasn't a horizontal line across the center of the image. Images like this usually need a center of interest, but in this case I'm not quite sure what that is.
