That's my policy, too. And I've found that many (not all) of the
negative comments I do see fall into the categories of
nit-picking-pixel-peeping or are over things like oversharpening that
apply only to the web image and not the eventual print (which is what I
always regard as the final product of a photograph). My observation is
that there seems to be a lot of scrutinizing trees while ignoring the
forest.
That said, I have to admit that the appeal of this specific photograph
of Godfrey's completely escapes me. I just don't see anything there.
But that's just me. No photo has to please *everyone*.
