do you prefer to photograph people or scenary?

I would have to say that I much prefer to take pictures of scenery then I do people. In particular, I love winter shots with snow, blizzards etc... I am not sure why, but I fine them to be quite relaxing. People on the other hand, not so much. :) cheers

i will prefer to take photographs of sceneries over that of animals and people, too. the good photographs that can be taken of people and animals will have to be candid ones. and these are not easy to capture. once captured though, it will surely be an awe-inspiring take.

I also like to photograph scenery rather than people. I don't know exactly why, perhaps because you can find so much more interesting moments in the nature around you than in people. Not that people aren't interesting but a) I have A LOT of pictures with my closed ones and b) I really don't dare asking strangers to pose, even though I'd actually like it very much (photographing strangers). That's why I take more scenery pics than people :P

I enjoy taking scenaries. THere's something soothing about a well-taken shot. But lately, street photography and taking people in motion holds a certain fascination to me. It seems as if I've captured that moment in time, never to repeat itself.

I love taking pictures of people, my friends, my family. I love to save the moment. I have a ton of pictures of friends and family. I live pictures of scenery also but I like to remember how people were.

It depends on the subject at that moment of time. Scenary had to wait for timing where by Human can be arrange and taking indoor studio.

i prefer scenery from around the area i live in. I have the happy fortune to live in a very beautiful area and enjoy sharing these with the rest of the world blessed be

you are right that posed pictures are not really intriguing. I like to take pictures of animals and birds though. It calls for a lot of patience, but once you get a good result, you feel at the top of the world. It is very difficult to photograph butterflies, but just think about your happiness when you get a really good shot!I love sceneries as well, and people too, especially if I can catch them unawares, in a special moment.

I have some many photos of the places in the world that I have travelled to. I have put them all in albums and like to look back on them from time to time. Scenery is the sort of thing I take photos of mainly. I prefer to take a photo of a special looking building without a crowd being in the way. But is busy cities this can be rather difficult so it does not really matter. It is lovely to take photos of local people if they are dressed in a particular way. I saw a lady carrying a basket of her head when I was in Guatemala. So I took a photo of her. I also saw two women that were weaving in a market place. They were wearing lovely colourful clothes and so I took a photo of them as well. In Kenya I enjoyed taking photos of the Maasai people dressed in red robes. In Turkey I got a wonderful photo of an old man outside a mosque. It fitted the atmosphere of the village perfectly. I don't enjoy having my photo taken very much. I like to take photos of my family and friends though.

They are both skills in their own right! Usually I prefer to photograph scenery. But given the opportunity, I want to move on to capturing more people. It is a skill to be able to capture the perfect moment when you are taking picture of people. With scenery, you have all the time to focus, place your angle and shoot. For people, even when they are posing for the camera, there is a limit to the patience they have for the poses. Take too long and the smiles are no longer natural. Too fast and you may not get the focus or the angle right! Like they say, practice makes perfect! Hopefully, I will be able to upgrade from a point-n-shoot to a basic SLR set ;)

Give my anything but people any day. It's not easy to find a person who will not try to change their essence for a photo. Scenery will give me many chances to experiment with field of vision, focal depth, etc. I love to photograph animals because all you will see is their soul.

It depends on what I'm photographing for. If it is a vacation I like to have my family in the photos to show we were there and for the memories when we look at the photographs. If I'm doing it for myself or for pay, then I go with scenery.

Being a professional photographer is one of my frustration in life i must say :D and i love taking pictures of people. I love to capture emotions on my shots!I just like to see pictures that way i guess...But i also love to take pictures of the beautiful places i've been to.

I enjoy taking pictures. I love to capture moments, because most of our past are stored in our memories, and we cannot relive it. We even forget these memories. Taking Photographs is one way to get back to those moments we've had in the past. I like taking photos of people, places, flowers and others. But, just I like you, I simply love the sunrise or the sunset. Whenever I have the chance to capture the sun in its rising or setting, I take it. When I go to the beach, I wake up early to capture the sunrise and sit on the sand towards the end of the day to capture its setting. I feel so wonderful when I look at the photos I've taken. The way color changes in every movement of the sun is so amazing. It never cease to amaze me how great the Creator in Heaven is for painting such a wonderful scenery in the sky at the beginning and ending of every day. I also like to take photos of mountains, nicely-colored stones, winding rivers. But, I take time to take pictures of people too, specifically, children or babies. Since I'm a teacher, i really love children. I capture my students and cousins when they're dancing, eating, drawing, playing or simply sleeping. They're so adorable. I'm not a professional photographer or anything like that, but I just like the idea of taking pictures. If given a chance, I would like to take photography lessons and make it really a hobby.

I love both and it's really hard to pick one. I love scenary pictures and they're more easy to take because the moment seems to last longer. Also, I love to magnify how beautiful a place is by a scene and those are really lovely to watch later on too. But for people, I think I love it even though it's harder to take because it definitely brings more live into the picture and it makes you guess what the person was doing, thinking and dreaming at that time. It triggers off some imagination and I love it.

I like scenaries like landscapes, buildings, statues so you can reevisit them at any time. It is likely that you won;t go back to may of those places and you need mementos. I take photos of people in special ocasions as I have the images of my friends imprinted in my mind :)

i prefer both! i like manipulation much u can check out my profile for more pic!

i like taking photo of people because nature remain constant and we can get many photo of nature from various source.where as we cant get our 2 year age photo of ours at the age of 20.so taking photo of people is sweet memories.and we love on seening them at the later part of the life
