Good picture?

I rarely ask this question. But in this case I would really like to know why you like this picture (a self CC) ?

I'm going to say no, this isn't a good picture. In fact, had you not said it was a horse, I would have guessed a camel.

We would have to define 'good' to tell you that and even then it would probably just be our personal opinion on the matter. What were you trying to accomplish with the photo? What, if any, messages or emotional responses were you trying to illicit with the image? Was there a specific type of photography you were trying to achieve? (silhouette, back-lit, ect) Of coarse not every photo has to be so thought out and there is nothing wrong with just strolling around taking pics for fun.

Well, no it isn't a good picture. Shooting directly into the sun is rarely a good idea. It actually makes me squint to look at it. Try heading for the shade.

I like it. I knew it was a horse. Shooting into the sun CAN BE a good idea. It all depends on what you're trying to accomplish. It happens to work here...

Two things you need to ask yourself about this shot:

1)Was the result you got the intent of the shot?

2)Do you know how to reproduce it if you wanted to try a shot like this again?

Have fun and keep shooting!

everyone has their own opinion on what is "good". Do I like it?....No. looks like a cell phone shot and missed from a horrible delay. Does that mean its not "good"? ....No. if this is what you were trying to achieve than awesome. like mentioned above, Do you like it?
