But who determines what is artistically and technically lacking? Isn't that a personaly choice? A picture may not be in focus, but that can be an artistic choice, even if it isn't usually considered technically correct. Who really has the final word on what is "correct"? I personally see everything as being a personal choice, and the more we are exposed to, the more choices we have at our disposal to make.Dew said:if the photo is trully artistically and technically lacking .. then it must be mentioned .... if "we" throw in our personal choices than we're molding this individual to swallow our style and their not allowed to bloom
I don't see a critique as a way of showing someone how it should be done. There's no such thing. It's just a way of explaining how we ourselves would have done it. Sure, we can have an undue influence on someone, but I think that person should be free to mimic as a way of exploration. I think this happens a lot in all mediums. Eventually, they will start to find their own style as they explore more and more as they start getting comfortable with all the choices that need to be made.
