When The Photo is Good, It's Good

Well it's true, when your photo is Good, It's Good what ever genre you have, whether journalism, documentary,  nature, portrait, glamour, etc. Well there is no exact formula what good photo is, but there is the rule of that and in my opinion those rules are : Sharp, Appealing Composition, Good Contrast, Strong Emotion and Story Telling, and Eye Catching. I will simplify that in my own sentence as : Emotional, Neat, and Epic.

How to achieve that? Simple but hard : take photo as often as you can, look other stunning photograph and learn how they do that (learn the composition, lighting situation they choose, the composition), then compare that work to your work and becoming mean to your self because as Henri Cartier Bresson said : "Your first 10,000 photos are your worst". There's nothing instant, even you have the most expensive camera and the most expensive "tack sharp" lens you have it doesn't make you a good photographer in just one night or event months, it took years of experience. Be patient and always critique your self or ask other to critique you, and slowly but sure you will have your work better and better (never trust those course or youtube channel that promise you can take better picture fast, that is totally bullshit!!).

As your skills developed, there's the time when you will develop your own style, so people will recognize you. Do you see Magnum Agency Photographer work or Noorimages Photographer work? See by your self and learn each photographer work, you will sense their style, that style that will differentiate your work from other photographer, again this is not going to happen in just one night, month, nor year, it take YEARS of Practice, Practice, Practice, Mistake, Mistake, Mistake, and Learn by that Mistake.

So When The Photo Is Good, It's Good Amigo!! But It just not happen in one night, year, or month, it will take a lot of practice and years of experience. Yes there's every body photographer nowadays but not All of them will become
really good photographer. Those really good photographer are who gave their commitment and time to make GOOD PHOTO!! And as I write this, I also still learning how to make GOOD PHOTO!
