Importance of critique

Subsequently after viewing the session on critiquing , I came to realize somewhat the importamce of the critique to the photograph, artist, and the viewer. The photograph is the essence of the hard work, technique, and and vision of the artist. The artisit's viewpoint is that of detail, structure, and vision; the photograph reflects this, thereby making the photograph (the end result) the viable instrument to critique from the viewer's point of view.
