One thing that people really do seem to enjoy is looking at, and hearing about other people. Could be for a number of reasons... Brian,

I got to looking at my sets on Flickr, and my largest set of all is "People". Sometimes they're portraits, sometimes candids, sometimes just background props. As I do more street photography, I'm finding that people are a key ingredient to an interesting scene. I shoot people. I got to looking at my sets on Flickr, and my largest set of all is “People”.

Just because I don't photograph in those categories does not mean that nobody does! Will add them pronto. Voters are also welcome to add a category themselves... So please do... Shikha,

Big oversights on my part. Just because I don’t photograph in those categories does not mean that nobody does! Will add them pronto. Voters are also welcome to add a category themselves… So please do…

We have a common friend who could vote in that category ;-). And yes, I too am pray to the same internal pull that causes me to put the camera on timer and photograph myself. Narcissistic obsessions I suppose *chuckle*. And oh, where would nature fit in? and wildlife? We have a photography competition in office - and wildlife is one of the categories, apart from landscapes and portraits. I am also prone to clicking food. And ardently admiring pictures of food in magazines/on the net. However, when I click food, it is usually only for the result of my *painstaking* experiments in the kitchen. Also because it is such a rarity ;-). Urban Landscape sounds interesting!! :)

Architecture is always fascinating; I think primarily because it says so much about the people who use it, while keeping them anonymous... I think my answer will eventually be architecture, but I'm going to take a while to evaluate that... This is mainly because my work finds me doing a lot of interior and architecture photography (I think I'm pretty decent at it too...). These days, I'm really trying to take a lot <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/susheel_c" rel="nofollow">more people photos</a> because I think that its my weakness. I do love to take photographs of urban life: something that I like to call the Urban Landscape, but which I don't get the time to photograph. Shikha,

I dont really click people on camera even though I find the idea fascinating. I usually end up clicking angles of buildings more! - atleast when I travel, I find myself obsessed with roofs, special motifs on walls, or striking structures :). I also like clicking flowers, although in that I must be on the lowest rung of flower photographers. Architecture was my answer.

Yes, sometimes its difficult to pin your photography on just one category. This exercise, in my opinion, is one that will hopefully lead to some photographers discovering what they love to photograph... A 'realisation' of sorts... As for me, I don't really know for sure myself. I haven't voted yet... Still trying to bring it down to one item! ;-) Laurie,

I was asked again this weekend this same question and I did not know what to say. I'm trying to get my viewers to tell me, but they haven't been very helpful! :-) I said Urban Life, but I really don’t know.
