The picture that stood out to me were the one that didn't look mundane.
I am not just about one type of photography, I love all types but if I had to choose I would probably pick people because only real life humans can make such interesting facial expressions that may be cute or pleasant.
The style of photography that I am most interested in, is landscape, but not landscape in a typical sense. I like to see the beautiful landscape in the background with something else in the picture, another element that captures your attention that you may not expect to be in that certain environment that the photo is taken in. I also like pictures of everyday ordinary things, captured in a new and interesting way that make you feel like it is something much more extraordinary than the object it actually is.
I like photographs with people. I also like when they are unaware that the pictures being taken or unprepared because you can capture a moment rather than a pose.
Even though black and white photography is pretty, I much rather prefer color photography because color can affect the mood an vibe of a picture. regarding the subject, I like it best when people are the main focus, but not very much when they are straight on.
I like all types of photography but I mostly like to take pictures of people this is because, I like to capture the moment or the action that is going on when taking a photo of a person.
The kind of pictures I like looking at, and the ones I like taking are of people. Those types of picture would be action shots. I think action shots show a lot of intensity. The action shots could be of people playing sports or doing anything else as long as they're moving. Another type of picture that I like is when the whole picture is black and white, and there's a small part in color.
I like taking pictures and filming people all the time. I haven't taken a ton of pictures lately but pretty soon the cannon is coming back.
