This would be a bad picture in my opinion because it is not focussed on the subject. There are unneeded things in the backround and it is not close enough to see the details of the person. I think it's boring and unattractive.
I think that this is a good picture for a few reasons. One, because it's close enough to show detail. Also, the lighting is not unusually drawing, but it is good, and it is taken from an iteresting angle too. I also used the technique of nature.
