This is something I've noticed for a while. Nature photos in my gallery always seem to get more attention than any other subject matter. This isn't only on dA either, it's consistent with every platform where I post my photography. Even though it's far from my main endeavor (I don't even shoot or post it that often), my nature photos always get the most likes, favorites, and general engagement. Furthermore, this isn't just an issue with my personal gallery. It seems like every photo that makes it to the front page on dA has nature as the subject matter. Even the photography groups I run receive the most submissions to the nature folders, by far. But... why?

There's probably not a single nature photo one can take that hasn't been taken before (no shade if that's your preferred subject, shoot whatever makes you happy). Maybe I'm jaded, but it's discouraging to see my generic nature

As you may already know (since I sometimes don't upload any art for months at a time), I've been having trouble with finding the motivation to edit photos. It's so daunting when I click on the edits folder on my laptop and see dozens of projects I should have finished already, some even from 2+ years ago. Since actually starting to take care of my mental health, this has gotten a bit easier and I'm slowly working my way through the backlog of photos I still need to edit. I know the idea of Pictober/Inktober etc. is to create something new every day of the month, and I did consider doing that, but I think my art turns out better when I feel li
