Photography largely ties in to self-education for me. For example, I've been interested in moths and other insects, so photographing different species for ID or to help understand various behaviors is a standard motivation. If I can do it in an interesting or unique way that draws interest from other people, all the better (the world needs more moth appreciators, and in general the overlooked bits of nature can't have enough spokespeople). This might loosely fall under the proposed #4.
Can polls allow the ticking of all the options that apply?
I can control how many answers you can tick, so if I ended up with 8 poll questions I could allow folks to check 8 options.
What's the definition of an "accurate portrayal of reality"
As opposed to an "artistic representation of reality"
Or even "an abstract representation of nothing in particular."
6. I enjoy helping people appreciate elements of the natural world.
