Well, seeing that this subforum is called "Contests and Special Events," how about "Best Events?" Like games and sporting events, races, shows, etc? I've got many, many photos taken at air shows and auto races is why I ask. And even though I have only a very few, good sports and concert photos are always fun to look at.

I think that is fine in people , naturally if you like it separately we can start for that.

Yeah I was wondering about that. Didn't know though whether you'd go for it, given that with some shots, say of an airplane flying over or a race car buzzing past, the driver or pilot are not always visible.

Just thought of a couple more category possibilities: "Best Still Life" and "Best Abstract" (or Avant Garde if you prefer)

Still Lifes are a perennial favorite and abstracts can often be very challenging, technically -- for a photographer, at least.
