I think we need more photo sharing on this forum. Maybe the MOD can sticky a few threads for that purpose.
I suggest the following sticky threads: Portraits, wildlife/animals, landscapes/scenery and macro/specialized photos.

Anyway?
I was just wondering whatevery one thought of as their most difficult subject to shoot and their easiest.
Difficult or easy can be defined in finding the subject, composing it, getting the right exposure etc etc.

Here?s mine:
Most difficult:
Lightning, still working on that one.
Sunsets, yes we see them every day, but unless there are clouds or something in foreground they make for boring shots. Getting the exposure right is difficult as well, to bright, to dark etc.
Sort of a sunset photo
Sunset on North Shore

Easiest:
Flowers and roses. Unless it is a windy day you have all the time in the world to get it right. Helps that I can go to Disney for free and shot their flower shows, they do an amazing job on keeping things in bloom.
Yellow Rose

animals - especially if they are moving.

i took lots of animals pics yesterday and posted it but i had a hard time getting shots of some of the animals because they would be constantly moving.

I always felt that even a quadriplegic could take a decent photo of flowers. Get in close on a sunny day, get the aperture wide open and snap away.

While shooting a pix I find the most difficult way to pose in front of digital camera. I want to look the best of me as model. :(
