An ideal photograph to me is one where the photographer has clarity around what they wish to communicate, and they give the viewer half the story. This can be achieved through careful curation about what is and isn’t included within the scene. Leaving some of the narrative to the viewer’s imagination allows an image to last, be a conduit for discussion, and be viewed time and time again.

Editing an image, beyond in a traditional style, doesn’t necessarily enhance an it. Be mindful with why you are editing, the purpose, and the aim. Sometimes a minor adjustment on your blacks and whites is all that is needed. You can keep it simple and still have impact.

Ultimately, it’s all about the final print. There should be one black, one white, and a host of greys in between. It should be skilfully made without the use of gimmicks or distractions. If it’s a bad print then no matter how great the composition or how strong the image is, it will fail. Check out The Zone System and The Print by Ansel Adams for some advice on how best to create the perfect print.
