This document provides tips for critiquing photographs. It explains that critiques should balance positive and negative comments, and evaluate technical factors like value, clarity, composition, and presentation. Value refers to the range of light and contrast in a photo. Clarity depends on focus, shutter speed, and contrast. Composition considers the point of interest, cropping, balance, and guiding the eye with lines. Presentation looks at the quality of the final print. Three sample critiques are provided that comment on these elements.
