Response to Digital Potrait: Subjective versus Objective

After completing the Digital Portrait assignment and observing the thought process behind each person's own portrait I discovered that the line that differentiates between subjectivity and objectivity is very blurred. It was interesting to see how each person approached this problem of subjectivity versus objectivity differently and what one individual read as subjective could be seen as objective to someone else. This is also interesting because in the end no matter how objective an image is each person carries with them their own subjectivity, therefore the same image can look very different to one person based on their own subjective beliefs compared to another outside viewer and then even more different then how the artist's hand intended it to be read.
