A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

What do you enjoy shooting the most?

I would say "Sports" for me

Insect Macro, abanonded stuff, ‘scapes, huge trees, portraits of women taken in a classic style with grainy b&w film.

Portraits/album covers

[–] Rd3photos@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Art nudes with a dash of black light, shibari, and/or digital projection.

[–] EvilWata@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Still Life and conceptual!

[–] el1teassass1n@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I've been shooting cosplay portraits for the past 2 years and its a blast. I also enjoy sports and wildlife photography.

City at night

[–] SnippityPippity@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Waterfalls! I also make it a habit to put the camera down and just relax at them too because the sounds and atmosphere rejuvenate me

[–] Funksavage@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nude portraits… sorry. Not explicit stuff…

[–] 4K_VCR@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Short long exposure. Like around 1/8th sec, 1/2 second. It’s an interesting limitation that forces you to think differently

[–] cuhoch64@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Sports,.specifically professional football.

[–] nonnativespecies@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Abstract subject matter. I like photographing parts of hot rods, motorcycles, plants, buildings, etc. Never the whole, recognizable thing, just the most interesting (to me) parts. Never people or recognizable places that would require a model or property release.

[–] AlexMammut@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Lost place photography. Followed closely by events, preferably music.

[–] Pepito_Pepito@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Long distance street. The scenes look like miniatures.

[–] QuillOmega0@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I love candid photography. Stuff that captures feelings.

I detest posed photos

[–] dekdekwho@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Empty places. I just love the beauty with no people in the shots.

[–] toilography@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Toilets! Seriously… they’re incredible objects to take photos of.

[–] Ethel12@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Mushrooms :)

[–] IndyCarFAN27@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Would aviation photography or photography of machines count as niche? Railfanning and such

[–] sjrow32@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Star trails. I stink at any other type of photography, especially people/portraits but doing night photography is my zen escape from the world.

[–] 5hallowbutdeep@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Landscapes and abandoned areas.

[–] AquaGecko1@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Surrealist/abstract photography. Love that, I also love finding people that belong to certain subcultures, and photographing them. They define what the statement is, only we can recognise it.

[–] PachucaSunrise@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Landscapes.

[–] fraxior@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Light Painting. Darius Twin boggles my mind all the time.

[–] Dark_Lord_Mr_B@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Cemetary photography. Lots of art in the last place people think to look.

[–] Green_Caver@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Landscapes and caves/mines mostly. But I also do macros of things that others won't recognise at all and just walk past.

[–] DSELABS@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Available Light

Cityscapes (I live in a city-state where natural vistas are non-existent)

[–] PhotosByVicky@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Long exposure. There is just something about waiting for 30 seconds to see what appears on the screen.

[–] moshpit_memories@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Concerts.

The energy, the lighting, the crowd. You can get wide shots of the crowd dancing to the stage. You can get emotional shots of artists playing. I love shooting concerts

[–] zenith3200@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Weather and cityscapes/skylines.

[–] MarbleGT@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
[–] PhotofitSG@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Por..... Opps (joking) Architecture, love lines and odd juxtaposition etc

[–] Bored-Scientist-47@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Equines and wildlife.

[–] No_Skill_RL@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

ICM! Fuck the gear, make beautiful ethereal works of art with just your phone.

[–] IM_YOL0O@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Natural things (smile, person, laugh, lights, landscape, scene) I try to not edit my photos, or at least light and color when it's too far from what my eyes saw

[–] FondantNo1551@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I have always been interested in hostile environments ( Wars ) I started in the mid 90’s in Bosnia during the war. I think i was nearly out of my 9 lives after Libya so I’ve back away from it these days but i do miss it.

[–] seeking_junkie@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Shadow projections

[–] Atlas-The-Ringer@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Stillness, soft moments, scenes inspiring reflection

[–] fourbrickstall@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Toys, particularly LEGO

[–] juangutip@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Formula 1 for me! Trying to do a perfect panning shot with the fastest cars on earth is addicting

[–] wo_ot@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Architectural. It’s what I do for a living and never gets old

[–] Solid-Rub-6875@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nude bodies

[–] No-Register-3845@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Candid shots of people✨

[–] Fack_JeffB_n_KenG@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

💟💟💟💟

[–] Luis_Gaio@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Most definitely Portraits or studio photography in general, hands down. And it's quite awesome once you figure out where your the most comfortable with.

Here's some of my work:

[–] Truly--Unruly@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Reportage/Documentary for sure.

[–] anayonkars@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Mostly street, landscape, but basically anything with everything in focus.

I just cant' stand those out of focus 'bokeh' photos where only 1-2 things are in focus and background is blurry.
