Good and Bad Pictures

Hi All

As an experiment, give me an idea of what you think is a bad picture content wise. I’d like to see if I could show you how it is a good picture

a bad picture would be a picture that was taken to deliberately hurt another person . . .

a “good” picture is obviously personal, but if it was taken to hurt another person, it doesn’t matter to me if the content of the picture is pleasing, it was still done for a negative reason, therefore the content does not matter, the existence of the picture would probably be a negative one.

that is just my little brain on the subject.

Hi S

a bad picture would be a picture that was taken to deliberately hurt another person . .

But suppose that fifty years after it was taken it is found in the attic and people discuss how callous we are to one another after looking at the picture. The initial bad intent is so superficially obvious that those looking at the picture begin to see this tendency in themselves and resolve not to act in similar ways. Then perhaps its effect from what it reveals makes it a good picture.

well done
