Years ago, at Nightingale, a school for girls here in NYC, an astute student said, "Mr. Beeecher, if you say, 'It's interesting,' you don't like it."
Interesting, here, means something else.

Definition of Interesting by George Barr
"Photograph what interests you"
"Interest Comes First"
"Look for something interesting"
Sounds like this "Interesting" thing, whatever it is is pretty important so I thought I would talk about it.
Let's see if we can figure out what interesting really means.
We could start by describing some things that are interesting, then we might have a better idea of what it means, keeping in mind that we are talking photographically.

In grade school mannerisms "interesting" can be a negative--a gentle way of saying "you got it wrong".
But in real life where the search for truth is difficult and the road never black and white, "interesting" is usually a compliment.
You learn something from an interesting photo.
