With many years in customer service, I have learned how to give positive feedback when I want to. If you are looking for words. You might try "The quality is great, the lighting / contrast / color are very pleasing; however, the subject does not personally capture my interest. I am sorry. I wish you the best. You are a very good photographer"
That way, just because you find it boring, it doesn't mean that YOU believe everyone else will also. It shows that you appreciate their technical skills, but you aren't engaged in the photo.
Just my thoughts... |
This is very similar to a response I've received; comment was basically: 'sound technically, but doesn't 'grab' me - 6'. I find it a solid comment - I can appreciate what they're saying and while I disagree (it's a BEAUTIFUL picture! ), the comment highlighted the fact that whatever they didn't like about it was based on individual aesthetics rather than the structure. Or at least I'm getting better at the fundamentals and am progressing towards the 'big time'. As a noob who rarely gets over a 5, it's the type of comment that cheers me and gives me something to build on. Just my perspective on it.
Cheers
Stu
