Same here! I love photographing animals/wildlife also. That's my favourite, actually.

I only started learning photography earlier this year anyway, so it's definitely just for fun. :)

I would classify that as portraiture, if you're doing, say, model portfolio shots. Or if you're doing them for advertising, I'd say that is commercial.

it was hard for me to choose... i love to shoot my cat for fun :) The camera's just usually the most humane thing to use, especially at 6 in the morning lol.

I'm still a P&S with no real focus yet. But I'm learning :)

hope you don't mind -- I added a couple of things to the poll to round out the catagories for those of us here who shoot other things.

The poll was a little bit mis-constructed to begin with, now it's completely muddled, are we looking for WHAT do you photograph or WHY do you photograph? I thought the original question was the latter.

I never saw the poll as a "why" .. and if you read the subject line of this thread... it definately points towards the "what"
