攝影眼，是一個在華人攝影圈中經常出現的詞語，通常用來形容攝影師優秀的觀察力與作品的高水準。
然而，這個詞也帶有一些微妙的語境差異。
然而，這個詞也帶有一些微妙的語境差異。
當別人用來形容某位攝影師時，通常是一種肯定與讚美。
但如果有人自稱擁有「攝影眼」，或公開強調自己是透過「攝影眼」拍攝，則可能引來網路酸民的揶揄與批評。
The term “photographic eye” is commonly used in the Chinese-speaking photography community to describe a photographer’s keen observational skills and high-quality work.
However, the phrase carries subtle nuances in different contexts.
When others use it to describe a photographer, it’s usually meant as a compliment and acknowledgment of their talent.
But if someone claims to have a “photographic eye” or openly emphasizes that their work is the result of this ability, they might attract ridicule or criticism from online skeptics.
每個人其實都擁有屬於自己的「攝影眼」，不應該因為某人自稱擁有攝影眼，就被網路出征或攻擊。
在我看來，「攝影眼」的真正含義，是指每個人對眼前景色與事物的獨特感知與解讀方式。
換句話說，每個人所關注的細節與視角，都是獨一無二的，這也正是攝影多樣性與個人風格的展現。

Everyone has their own “photographic eye”, and no one should be criticized or attacked online just for claiming to have one.
To me, the true essence of a “photographic eye” lies in each person’s unique way of perceiving and interpreting the world around them. In other words, the details and perspectives we focus on are entirely our own—this is exactly what makes photography so diverse and a true expression of personal style.
我之所以寫這篇略顯敏感的話題，是因為在網路上的某些攝影討論區，我經常看到有人因為提及「攝影眼」這三個字，而遭到特定網友的攻擊。
坦白說，我自己也曾在早年經歷過類似的事情，甚至遭到群體圍攻。
這不僅影響了我的情緒，還讓我一度懷疑自己的攝影能力，需要一段時間才能調適，重新找回自信。

The reason I chose to write about this somewhat sensitive topic is that I often see people in certain online photography forums getting attacked by specific users simply for mentioning the term “photographic eye.”
Honestly, I went through a similar experience in my early years—even facing group attacks. It didn’t just affect my emotions; it also made me doubt my own photography skills. It took a while for me to adjust and regain my confidence.
我剛剛提到，「攝影眼」指的是每個人獨特的感知與解讀方式，而正因為這份獨特性，攝影才得以成為充滿個人視角的藝術。
然而，在攝影圈或網路社群中，時常有人因為作品與自己的審美不同，便對創作者進行批評甚至攻擊。
這樣的行為，其實反映出一種「個人審美至上」的偏狹心態。

攝影從來不是「對與錯」的選擇題，而是每個人如何詮釋世界的開放命題。
與其急著批評，不如先試著理解對方的視角，這或許能讓我們對世界的認知更寬廣，也讓攝影這門藝術保有更多可能性。

As I mentioned earlier, the “photographic eye” is about an individual’s unique perception and interpretation of the world. It is this very uniqueness that makes photography an art form deeply rooted in personal perspective.
However, within photography communities and online platforms, it’s common to see people criticizing or even attacking creators simply because their work doesn’t align with their own aesthetic preferences.
This kind of behavior stems from a “my aesthetic is superior” mindset—one that is both narrow and restrictive.
Photography has never been about right or wrong; it’s an open-ended expression of how each person sees the world. Rather than rushing to criticize, why not take a moment to understand another’s perspective? Doing so may broaden our own view of the world and help keep photography open to endless creative possibilities.
如果今天換作是你被批評，你還能如此理直氣壯地攻擊別人嗎？
在攝影圈這麼久，我見過不少鍵盤攝影師，他們或許拍得不錯，也或許拍得一般，但他們最大的問題是：
「不願意面對自己的不足，卻熱衷於挑剔別人。」
「不願意面對自己的不足，卻熱衷於挑剔別人。」
我向來不評論這類人的作品，因為對我來說，這些攻擊者的作品，連讓人駐足欣賞的價值都沒有。
這不是因為他們拍得不好，而是因為他們的心態讓人無法共鳴。

一個真正熱愛攝影的人，會關注自己的進步，而不是試圖拉低別人來提升自己的價值。
如果你對別人的作品感到嫉妒，那不是別人的錯，而是你該檢視自己的問題了。

攝影不是戰場，沒有輸贏之分，只有成長與停滯的區別。
你選擇哪一條路？

If the roles were reversed and you were the one being criticized, would you still feel so justified in attacking others?
Having been in the photography community for so long, I’ve come across many keyboard photographers. Some take decent photos, while others are just average. But their biggest flaw isn’t their skill level—it’s their refusal to confront their own shortcomings while eagerly picking apart others.
I don’t bother critiquing such people’s work because, to me, it doesn’t even hold enough value to warrant a second glance.
It’s not necessarily that their photos are bad, but rather that their mindset makes it impossible to connect with them.
A true photography enthusiast focuses on self-improvement rather than tearing others down to feel superior.
If you find yourself feeling envious of someone else’s work, that’s not their fault—it’s a sign that you should reflect on yourself.
Photography isn’t a battlefield; there’s no winning or losing—only growth or stagnation.
