I am just at the beginning of learning photography. It will be a very long path with a lot of practice, patience, influence and assistance by other profesionall photographers. If I saw pictures of famous photographers, I ask my self, what does those pictures in common has that differ them among others?
A picture should emotionally, asthetically speaking and if possible communicate a message to the viewer. The message that will be communicate are at many situations totally different than the actual situations it self. It is the photographer idea how a picture should look like or be. His or her sense of asthetic and emotion depends on experience in finding the right moment, that has to be learn and practice again and again.
Putting the elements of a picture that consist those three elements I pointed above is difficult to do. Finding the right background location, the right light and shadows on the scene and finding the right actors does not makes a picture complete. Waiting for the right moment of what the actors do, is very critical.
Photography to me is like looking a theatre...it could be a bad pice or a very good composed one.

Fotolehre and Die hohe Schlue der Fotografie. I also bought a book of
Ernst A. Weber: Sehen, Gestalten und Fotografieren. The last one
describe a lot of "Gestaltpsychologie" and how to compose a picture.
There are a lot of study cases on how to review a picture like a
professional jury does. We call it "fundierte Kritiek" and not just
say, good, nice capture etc etc.....What I want to know is how about experience of other beginners as well of profesionall photographers...
