My first Canon Experience

One of my classes this year for grade ten is Communications Technology, which is video, photoshop, flash animation, and, the best part, photography. The one task of our photography unit was an alphabet photography. We had to take pictures of something that started with the letter we drew from a hat. I got the letter H. My teacher knew that I was really into photography, so she gave me the honours of using the Canon EOS 450D. It was the camera the school bought last year, and it was my first experience using a Canon.
These were two of my favourite pictures I took with it. My teacher seemed to really like them, but I found that her definition of a great photo is way different that many of the definitions online and on here. So I figured I would see what you guys thought:
Thanks for viewing. C&C welcome.

What would you say your teacher's definition of a great photo is?

Judging from your Flickr posts (and another post I read recently about lens choices and Christmas camera wishes) you've got the bug. As a career educator, I'm pleased to see this kind of course on the books for kids your age.
As far as the definition of good photography, there's a fine balance of subjective judgement, technical knowledge and accepted standards. The order in which these are learned and applied may not be as important as the fact that you attempt to get well-rounded exposure (pun intended) to every aspect of what makes photos (all art really) excellent.
It might be interesting to find a subject of interest and take several version of it with different ISOs and/or post-processing techniques to create a study in what effect different levels of noise have on the viewer's (teacher's?) reaction.
Keep up the good work... and the good questions!
