Categories for the Adult Age Group Only: Black and White, Lifestyle (people or pets), Nature (wildlife, macro, or landscape), Artistic/Abstract Category Descriptions Black and White: This category includes all black and white images of all subject matters. Lifestyle (People or Pets): Lifestyle photography features individuals and families with the intention to capture real-life events or milestones in an artistic way. The best type of lifestyle photography is a planned version of candid. Nature (Wildlife, Macro, or Landscape): Nature photography is focused on elements of the outdoors. Specific subjects may include sky, water, and land, or the flora and fauna that inhabit these spaces—or both. Subjects are untouched and not made by the human hand. Artistic/Abstract: Push the limits and rules of photography in this category. Abstract images often use perspective, movement, and light to transform the world we see into an unexpected, often unrecognizable image.
