The PINHOLE CAMERA is probably the coolest thing i've ever seen...

There are many reasons why i like this picture a lot. First of all, the subject matter is very simple. It's just a bunch of cherries thrown in a bowl and set on a counter. But the reason i really like this picture is the angle, it makes the whole thing. If the photographer had taken a picture of the exact same bowl of cherries, except with no angel, just looking at it straight on, the picture wouldn't look as good and would feel very plain. I also like the fact that it's a sharp picture thats in focus! This picture really looks like it was taken by a $300 lens, not a oatmeal box!:)

Onto the bad...

Yeah.... this is the picture. I really really don't like it. I thought i was going to have a hard time finding one i  REALLY didn't like and could write about, but the second i saw this picture, i knew this was it. Well, there's just not much to it.. It's (I'm guessing) a boy(?) with no shirt on, and his head leaned back. It seems, also, by the way his shoulders are hunched up that his weight is on his hands and he's leaning on them,. Wellllll you just really can't tell whats going on... i  mean, maybe there was something behind him that he was trying to capture in the picture...but failed. One, it's blurry. Two, it would be kinda cool (i guess) if the contrast of his skin and the background was more pronounced ( he needs to stay out of the sun next time;) ) and Three, you should kinda be able to tell whats going on in the picture that you're looking at.
