What Qualities Does a Good Photograph Have?

Lou Jacobs Jr talks about what photographers think when taking a picture but explain what they should notice when taking one so it can bring out more meaning. Taking a picture seem like nothing but could say more then words. A picture is a moment in life saved in on simple sheet that one can remember the rest of there lives. It's an art to me to capture something that everyone can relate to. To me taking a picture of a bear could mean the world to me while to others just ridiculous. He also states that taking a picture doesn't have to be plan out ahead of time in a bright day, the best picture have be taken without a notice under the rain, running around, and even in a store. What he said we should have in mind when seeing or taking a picture is the impact that moment will being out, human interest if people are involve the emotion , action he or she has is very important. Effective composition, spontaneity, lighting cause a dark day can represent sadness, destruction etc. Color, contrast, camera angle and choice of Lens, as well as imagination and creativity. Most of this thing make more sense to professional photographers then to normal people but this just said to me that taking a picture is more then just a click on the camera.
