"Good" is not the same as "useful".

 iPhone 5 review

Photo by Gareth Beavis, 2012

Useful: whenever a new device is released (e.g. iPhone 5), reviewers show images of the product in hand, for reference of its life-size in order for consumers to get a general idea of what it is like in person. I would still argue that this image has aesthetic value because of the style of the device and white background.



"Good" is not the same as "interesting".

 Goldfinger

Interesting: Actor Sean Connery poses as James Bond next to his Aston Martin DB5 in a scene from United Artists Release "Goldfinger" in 1964.



"Good" is not the same as "liking"

Liking: One can argue that this image is not as good as the aerial view of the towers. However, images like this can be likable partially due to the beautiful architecture which can be pleasing to look at from any angle.

  1. The interesting and important photos I would consider to be "good" photos. I actually have taken the time in the past to watch a lot of 007, so that iconic photo will always stand out to me. The Goldfinger movie and 007's Aston Martin is an absolute classic. Glad to see someone else has an interest in the classic 007.

    1. Thank you! I have been watching James Bond ever since I was a little kid and I especially admire those older ones with Sean Connery and Roger Moore. I am very happy to hear that someone values these older 007 films too. I chose this specific picture because I think it really captures the great vibes that those movies give.
