We all know that in photography, aesthetics and technology are indispensable, and in some places, aesthetics may be more important.

So what does "aesthetic" mean? Aesthetics is a special form for us to know, understand and feel the world, which involves reason and emotion, subjective and objective, perception and feedback, that is to say, aesthetics should not be formed around a fixed system and goal.

In other words, aesthetics can be highly subjective, and there is no very unified standard.

The same is true of aesthetics in photography, everyone has their own preferences and understanding.

So what is "beauty"? In photography, beauty contains many elements:

First of all, there is direct beauty, such as good appearance, graceful posture, magnificent scenery, shocking and so on, which are all "objective beauty". We transform "objective beauty" into the beauty of image works through photography.

The second is the beauty that requires a certain subjective creation, such as the effect we get by looking for the shooting angle, reasonable composition, setting parameters and later adjustment, this kind of subjective creation can play a certain role of magnification and emphasis.

Finally, there is a kind of "perceptual beauty", which contains our cognition of things, which is more subjective, such as sensitivity to details, prediction of scenes, and so on. This kind of "perceptual beauty" has something to do with talent, experience, experience and so on. It even has something to do with our character and preferences. The so-called inspiration and creativity are also mostly concentrated in "perceived beauty".

From this point of view, there seems to be "high and low" in aesthetics, but it is mainly manifested in the two aspects of feeling "direct beauty" and "subjective creative beauty", that is to say, it is more related to grasping "technical beauty".

In terms of "perceived beauty", there is no high or low. Many people have experienced having ideas in the face of a certain scene at the novice stage, but they cannot film it. This is the ability to "perceive beauty", but without some technology. This is also what many people do not realize.

There are certain standards for "technical beauty". We often joke about the three elements of human image-model beauty, that's what we mean.

On the other hand, "perceived beauty" contains certain inspiration and creative elements, and it shapes personalized content to some extent. If there is a fixed standard for "perceived beauty", each of us will have a complete aesthetic convergence. Photography has become a pure technical activity that does not need to think.

Therefore, we do not need to require personal understanding to be completely consistent with others, some personalized things are more important, and it is the aesthetic differences that make photography more interesting, diverse and unknown.
