OFFICIAL Eorzea's Next Top Model Discussion Thread

[Kuraran]

Though I agree, I spent hours taking pictures, queing Hullbreaker, sorting through and asking opinions., however my shots got me listed as a possible eliminate this round because I went with advice from others vs intuition. I just wanted to point out that just because a shot might not seem much work to you, that's not always the case <3

God, I can't find the words I used for my answer on Kyri's post again but I'll try... (messed up my copy/pasting >_>)

I thought, that my wording on the part where I said "that seem to have not put that much work or thought into their picture" would indicate, that I'm not thinking that "not so good pictures" didn't have much work put into them.
I know that even picture that seem bland or not as well thought out with their scenery when compared to other, still can have tons of work and time put into them, so I'm sorry that what I wrote came across like that (but I already expected it kinda...)

Like Kin already said, opinions differ for each and every person.
So a picture that might not seem good to you but you still submitted, might be an enjoyable shot for someone else and the same goes for the other way around.
A picture you've taken and you like really much might not be liked by other people.

Continuing on to what Tinsley said:

it's all subjective. What i see in a picture may not be what you see. I found myself thinking a picture here and there wasn't so great and couldnt understand why so many liked it, but then, that's just my personal opinion and it doesnt make it right or wrong. it just is.

what's that phrase... You can please some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time but you can't please all of the people all of the time

This is basically how I thought about some of the pictures and how much votes they earned.
I mean, my opinion is first of all, just one of many and even if I tell people what I'm thinking, they might not agree on that even if I'm explaining my thought process on how I came to think like that.
Like you already said, when you have an opinion, there really is no right or wrong.

It still irritates me, that I've been upset when I've seen the tally for the votes, even though I know that all to well.
