Beauty is a subjective thing, I know. In my scoring and comments I'm trying to score based on NOT whether or not I would think a particular subject beautiful, but on whether the photographer has succeeded in creating a beautiful photo. I look for the elements of color, lines, focus and dof interest, lighting, and a certain element of grace and lovlieness. I'm looking for a unique and creative appeal for the highest scorers. The description says to create a photo that makes the viewer think "that's beautiful", so it will undoubtedly be very subjective. (This is what I'm putting at the start of all of my comments, and I hope it is helpful.)
That being said, I'll et it is a beautiful spot. I'm not a big fan of the really soft looking water, and this is softer than most I think. Probably the biggest drawbacks to me thinking "beauty" for this shot would be that the top of the composition appears crowded...I'd like to see more of the source of the water. I think maybe less rock on the left would also have helped. |
