The Perceptive Photographer
Defining your best work
This week’s podcast explores the elusive quest to identify the “best photograph” in a series, delving into considerations like emotional impact, composition, and our own bias. One of the most complex aspects of this process is determining the “best photograph.” Is it the most visually striking image or does it carry the most significance and impact? The answer is subjective and depends on various factors since things like intention, the purpose of the series, and the overall viewing experience come into play. Rather than come up with a single answer, I talk about the impacts of how we approach this definition and how to dig deeper in a conversation with someone who might ask you that very question.
