Category Confusion There seems to be some confusion on which category to submit certain images. A couple of individuals have asked "me", (why, I don't know), as to which category would a person submit a abstract image of a flower? Reading the new category guidlines still leaves this wide open! This shot here, is in the "Elements Of Design" category. http://www.betterphoto.com/gallery/dynoGallDetail.php?photoID=364605&catID=560&style=&contestCatID=4 It is a abstract image of a flower, but you also have abstract images of flowers and foliage in the "Flower" category, and abstracts in the "Details & Macro" category. So, how would one know which would be the best category to submit abstract images of a flower? So happens to be what I personally shoot the most of, so it is a good question? Thanks for the help gang,

I checked out the photo and it could easily fit into all three categories. The soft focus effect you applied creates texture and evokes a dream-like state. For that reason, I think "Elements of Design" is the best choice.

Thanks for the responses everyone. I checked with Heather, and she stated after a bried explanation on what happened, and that this shot would go into the "flower" category or even the "details/macro" category. Mike
