How does any Photograph, Painting, Graphic Art, Sculpture, Music, Poetry, Literature and... make you feel _?_ Do YOU like it _?_ or NOT like it _?_, then why.

Photo image creation has a long line of perpetrators of deliberate misinformation and accidental
Trade secrets
'Good' is what I personally 'Like!' no set rule to that. I rely on 'chemistry'
Yes, emotion is a big deal for me. Endless big words of 'critics' are worthless
I try hard to not read movie reviews until after
Today I am hanging MY art on my wall
A riot of graffiti shot from my last studio front door. Nikon P7000 handheld 10 years ago, I shot that bridge 20 times over a decade
I just had it printed in USA mounted 36X48" $300 shipped flat. For a $5 Goodwill wood frame I bought 4 years ago. The deep relief baroque frame makes it 40X60"
The printer called me about pixelation, I told her print and glad I did!
I love it!
the dead love $$$ more than life

This thread is just a game - play only if you want to!
So let's define "like" by this: A photograph you "like" is one you would come back to on a regular basis. Maybe you'd hang it on your wall, maybe its in a book that you would look at regularly for enjoyment. Are there photographs that you think are good, but that you don't like, based on that definition of "like?" If so, what attributes might those photographs have that cause you to consider them good? And what attributes do they have or lack that prevent you from liking them?
Me too!
If the dog eats it, it’s good dog food.
This rule probably applies to photography too.
With apologies in advance to any who find this annoying, I'll keep hammering on Brian's assertion, which ended with the qualifier "for me." The qualifier applied to the statement "If I like it, then it is good," which is a conditional statement, "if p, then q." So what, then, of the related statements, still with the qualifier "to me?"
the converse "if q, then p," or "if it is good, then I like it"
the contrapositive "if not q, then not p," or "if it is not good, then I do not like it"
the inverse "if not p, then not q," or "if I do not like it, then it is not good"
Merg, Brian and I have all volunteered that the converse does not hold for us.
IDunno… I’ve become rather simple-minded over the years. I trust your logic and the associated convolutions. What’s really true is, “If I don’t like it then I won’t give it a second thought and generally couldn’t care less if anyone else likes it and thinks it good.”
