First look on a photo

When you first look at photograph and make your initial judgement of it as being 'great', is it because it is technically great or because it makes you feel something?

- When first looking at a photograph, you are making the judgement of whether you think it is great or not. But, if your judgement of the photograph is that you think it is great then, I believe you are making an emotional connection rather than being technical. When you look at a photograph that you think is great, you are more likely making an emotional connection. You are liking it because you are feeling something. It is making some kind of connection. It may be that I it is reminding you of something in your personal past, or your think that it has a liking of yours. Therefore, you are making more of emotional connection rather than technically seeing that is great. However, I think that you will later come to the thought that maybe there is certain lighting, position or technical about it that you like, but your first thought will be on the fact that the photograph makes you feel something. There that why I think that your first initial thought on it come from feelings rather than the technical perspective. But, the technical parts of the photograph do make your feelings of it more real.
