When you first look at a photograph and make an initial judgment of it as being 'great', is it because it is technically great or because it makes you feel something? In other words, are you reacting to its technical quality or its emotive quality? Explain in detail.
I think that when I see pictures, I judge whether they are good or bad
based on the technical aspect. I don't really pay attention to the emotional
side of it, unless it is something really graphic or dramatic. I usually judge
pictures on how clear they are, how well I can see them (based on lighting) or
the colors used in the picture. I look more for the uniqueness of a photo and
the "coolness" of it rather than if it brings out emotion for me. I think that
being able to bring out emotions in people can make a good picture even better, but I also feel that without the technical aspect of that picture being on par, the rest of the photo will just fall through. I definitely think that before any emotion is added to the picture, the technical quality needs to be there first.
