So, what's a best photo anyway?
The one you like the most, because there's a story for you behind it?
The one your daily audience (i.e. old aunties / young nephews / facebook friends) appreciates the most, because it is gorgeously oversaturated, and they can't see the artifacts through their glasses or on their smartphones?
The one that would get the best critique on /p/ for adherence to rules of thirds, vertical verticals, etc?
Or the one that gets chosen for modern art museums, breaking all of the "rules" and being painful to look at?
So there. If you're not going to live off your photography, and as long as people who matter to you like your photos, you're doing just fine. Gleaning new ideas is always nice, though.
