"Nature" or "Macro" cathegory for small animals ?

Hi,

I (as many other folks here) like to shot insects, snails and small

lizards and to share these images with the community.

Where do you think that such images should be posted to receive a

serious critique ?

The "Nature" section is too wide, covering from landscapes to lions,

and while "Macro" is appropiate, most people posting comments are not

familiar with shoting small fast moving things so the critiques

received are not allways useful.

Please understand that I'm not complaining about low/high ratings.

Is it a good idea to suggest the creation of a "Insects and similar"

cathegory ?

Thanks

Manel

No matter how specific a category becomes, the knowledge and understanding of viewers won't magically improve... There is no guarantee who will view your image - what level of experience or appreciation they might have for your style of work or the selected category, there's no telling when or where your image will be viewed (in what particular forum/feature, with or without categorisation: TRP, rate recent, etc), and I would imagine only a limited number of people meticulously photograph small or fast moving things. So I think you were right, the "macro" category would suffice for the majority of shots you describe...
