| Hi Bhasmang, The category description as was, is below. Hope this helps Portrait: Portraiture is a classic photographic form that typically captures the face of a person.
Amateurs worry about sharpness,
Professionals worry about money,
Photographers worry about light.

| Wikipedia gives the following definition: "A portrait is a painting, photograph, sculpture, or other artistic representation of a person, in which the face and its expression is predominant. The intent is to display the likeness, personality, and even the mood of the person. For this reason, in photography a portrait is generally not a snapshot, but a composed image of a person in a still position. A portrait often shows a person looking directly at the painter or photographer, in order to most successfully engage the subject with the viewer".
