Composition 1-5 points

Does it tell a story?

Where is our eye lead to in the picture?

Is the photograph balanced, and if not, is it creating the visual impact it should?

Do I Like the Photograph?  1-5 points

All art is dependent on our own tastes, likes and dislikes.

It has nothing to do with how experienced the photographer is.

This is the WOW factor.
