Hm, I haven't thought of that yet, Tunde... I never think in terms of favorite subjects; I just want to make the best possible photograph, whatever the subject is. There was something I really wanted to photograph a few days back, so I drove off at night to take pictures of the rising sun above the Cap Blanc Nez in France. I have around 50 absolutely gorgeous pictures that I thought were amongst the best that I have ever made: beautiful shots of the early sunlight reflecting in the ripples on the beach, with the Cape as backdrop... I posted one tonight, and hardly got any response on it... I was so shocked! Then I saw that none of the pictures in the gallery got any views or comments, except two nude images, which got more views and comments than all the other images combined... Maybe I should change my favorite subject...? Which led me to thinking that the whole system of commenting and viewing in the gallery has absolutely nothing to do anymore with photography whatsoever... but perhaps that's off-topic for this thread...
