What makes a photography print artistic? What draws the line of just a photo and an artistic photo?

Is it a fine line or a broad line between technically good photography and artistic photography? Is there a difference between the two, are they mutually exclusive or do they blur together and overlap? Is there a line at all ? I tend to think that there is no line, that artistic photography can be technically good and vice versa, but what about when an artistic photograph is in theory technically bad, yet it works as a piece of art ? Is it a good photograph ? I'd like to hear what others think, my mind is open, I'm a painter who knows little about photographic technology, but I have a definite interest. I'd just like to mention that I am not responsible for any thumbs down happening here. I like all the answers.

What can I use for a pure white background in photography? I do artistic photography and I want to take photos of objects (still life) with the pure white or smoked white seamless backgrounds. I have tried different types of cloth but I always get hint of texture no matter the dof. I have tried making a photo box for this but the corner seams are always visible. I have a great lighting setup. I have seen photos like this. One that comes to mind is a photo I saw of an egg with a white seamless background. The egg was in the lower left quadrant and it was that simple. The contrast and detail of the white egg shell against a pure white backdrop were stunning. The photo had no Photoshop or retouching of any kind. The egg was sitting on something, but you couldn't tell. You couldn't even see a difference between the background and the surface where the egg was resting on. Any suggestions how to make a box like this and what materials to use, is greatly apprecated. Thank you.

Does anyone have opinion about Stare Photography Online Courses? My wife has a very artistic eye, she can really take good pictures, but she does not understand all of the photography lingo.

I want to go to school for photography? I would love to go to school for photography and I think it is realistic to say that I have somewhat of a gift in photography.

Do they have universities that teach that sort of thing without me having to take classes for other visual arts?

Does considering photography an art belittle the importance of life-like painting as an art? I read about the topic in a magazine called "Smart Photography" (in India) where the writer ridiculed the argument made by a few painter folk that photography in itself is an "un-artistic art" because it uses modern technology (camera, image manipulation software etc.) to illustrate the artist's creativity saying that brush, paint ans canvas etc. are external (modern scientific) aids too. I see this as an endless debate. Your views are welcome. Is painting a "higher" form of art than photography? Boohoohooooo...!! Typo. It is "and". Not "ans". In the line- "...illustrate the artist's creativity saying that brush, paint AND canvas etc..."

If I wanted to take up photography as a hobby, what would you recommend - serious answers please? I'm not exactly the artistic type and I don't have any expensive photographic equipment. However, I've been thinking about getting into photography as a hobby - using a digital camera, not film. I currently have a 5.0 MP camera with a 3x optical zoom. I've played around a bit with the various features and learned how to take decent pictures in various conditions. And I do have a decent tripod. I guess one of my main questions is whether I should immediately try to buy a digital SLR camera or if the one I have would be adequate to start. And once I am taking pictures, are there specific subjects or concepts I should focus on. Or is it more just getting out there and taking pictures?

I want it to be attractice, artistic or something like that, any techniques?? thanks.

How much is the best price to charge for photography services? I am pretty much an intermediate photographer and just getting into digital photograhpy, but have used a film camera for years. Right now I do portraits for free and only ask that my models give my name out. How much should I charge when I do start to charge? Should I charge per session or per style, like nudes would be more than casual and kid portraits more than anything? I offer: 250+ pics in a session i can do practically any setting or style, like artistic, casual, portrait, erotic/nude, etc, just nothing too dirty! I burn a CD of the original untouched pics and send via snail mail a remastered CD and select remastered prints. I also have the ability to make poster size prints.
