Estetické hodnotenie fotografií na internete (Aesthetic evaluation of photographas on the Internet)

Abstract

A photograph connects its author with a viewer through visual communication. A captured image as a specific form of art evokes aesthetic evaluation on the viewer’s side and subsequently alters the communication meaning of the photograph. The aim of this study is to describe such characteristics of photographs that can influence aesthetic evaluation and thus facilitate visual communication. Close attention is payed to photographs posted via specific web applications.
