How do I evaluate a "born digital" photograph?
A photograph meaning is shaped by the photographer's point of view and our background as we "read" it. To evaluate a photograph, ask:
What do I see (observations)?
What might it mean (inferences)?
How does it make me feel?
Why might this photo have been taken?
What is out of the picture? What might be missing?
What other questions might I ask?
