critiquing corner-by photo assignment DA
Critiquing Corner
Many people may not know where to begin when writing a critique. Some amateur photographers may even feel that they are not "worthy" to critique a professionals work. The fact is it doesn't matter whether you are just staring out or are a seasoned professional--there are many different aspects of a photo that you can comment on. If you don't feel that you have a handle on the technical aspects of photography, then just comment on the composition, the story, or the emotional feeling behind the photo.
Remember, writing critiques is beneficial not only for the photographer whose work you are critiquing, but it is tremendously helpful to you, the critique writer. By thinking about all the different aspects of what makes a photo "good" or "poor", you are adding to your own knowledge base to be used when it is you clicking the shutter!
Tips on Critiquing
Here are just a few tips to keep in mind when critiquing someone else's work:
Critique the technicals. Exposure.
Is any area overexposed or underexposed? If so, can you say why you think that happened? How could the photographer prevent this problem in the future?
Focus.
Is the main subject in focus? Is it sharp focus, or a "soft" focus? Is the focus appropriate for the situation?
Depth of Field (DOF).
Is the DOF shallow or deep? Does the DOF work in this shot, or should more (or less) of the photo be in focus?
Lighting / White balance.
Is the light soft or harsh? Does the type of lighting enhance or detract from the things in the photo? Is the white balance set correctly? Is there a yellowish, orangish, or greenish cast to the photo?
Critique the composition. Centered vs. "Rule of Thirds".
Is the main subject in the center of the frame? Is it on a third? Somewhere else? Does the chosen composition work, or would you have done something differently?
Fore, Middle, and Backgrounds.
(Most applicable to landscape photos) Does the photo contain all three? If not, do you think it would be better if it did?
Cropping/Framing.
Is there wasted empty space is the photo? Should the crop have been tighter? Is it cropped so tightly that important parts of the photo have been cutoff?
Color / Tonal Range.
What type of colors do you see? Did the photographer use a lot of primary colors? Secondary? Complementary? Are the colors too vivid? Not vivid enough? If you are looking at a B&W photo, is there a true black, true white, with a large tonal range in between, or is the photo too "gray"?
Diagonals, S-Curves, etc.
Did the photographer make use of any visually-interesting elements, such as diagonal lines or S-curves?
Leading lines.
Do the lines and overall composition make you want to look deeper into the photo? Is your eye drawn into the photo, or out of it?
Dark vs. Light areas.
Are there too many bright areas? Too many dark areas?
Balance.
Is the photo "balanced"? Would it be better if there were other objects or other light/dark areas in the frame to improve the balance? If the photo is off balance, is there a reason for it?
How does it make you feel?Even if you are a beginner, you are certainly qualified to critique based on these questions:
What mood do you see in the photo?
Do you think this mood is what the photographer intended?
Does it make you happy? Sad? Angry?
Did the photographer succeed in telling his/her story with the photograph? Why or why not?
Do you like the photo? And, more importantly, say WHY you like the photo, or why you don't.
Would you hang this photo on your wall? Why or why not?

忙 。
本來決定放棄大學的student exchange program了的
但看到同班的日語classmate有好幾個都紛紛申請到去日本留學
我的心裡又蠢蠢欲動了起來
加上最近。。一切不如意的事情發生了
讓我覺得我更應該要好好充實自己，不要再依靠別人
這些日子已經習慣了一個人的生活
很多時候都是一個人去上課
一個人去吃飯
已經慢慢不覺得自己是孤獨的了 =D
是啊，我有好多東西要做呢~
要設計自己的character
要想concept想idea
要update自己
要做好research
還有好多好多的東西要做~~
噢！對了~年尾還要考JLPT 3。。TT
要做好多好多練習了。。唉
希望事事順利咯~
好像真的有很多東西忙啊~~
有時候閒又閒到半死
有時候忙又忙到半死
生活好鬱悶吶~~

討厭無恥的人＊anti！！！
這兩天我發現有些人很吃飽沒事做喜歡到別人的部落格盡說些損人的話。
真搞不懂，為甚麼要這樣？人家得罪你了嗎？
儘管不喜歡別人的拍照方式，也不必這樣沒禮貌的去批評別人吧？
你們的禮貌去了哪裡？
媽媽沒教你們說話要客氣一點嗎？看了就有氣！！
有種就放你們的website／blog URL出來，不要做縮頭烏龜。
讓別人也去拜訪你，看看你的作品有幾見得人。
每個人都需要鼓勵與支持的，而不是被人踩！！
大家也要一起來anti這類沒道德的人！！
你們太過份了！
去看看這幾個人怎樣損人吧！！＊HERE＊

再想想，再想想...

近時 （きんじ）、あたしの気分 （きぶん）はちょっと悪かった。
運勢（うんせい）も同じです。
友達と関係は悪かった。
勉強するのもよっかったじゃない。
どうして、今年の運勢悪そうですか。
悲しい。。。
でも、もっとがんばってみる、ね？
