I'd define it as something that stands out to you in a photo, something that catches your eye and makes you think, "Wow, that photo is really nice."
2. What are characteristics of photographic beauty?
I think the photo needs a story to tell, good lighting, great color, and a good location for it to be beautiful. But it mostly depends on how the person sees it.
3. Can something "ugly" be photographed and be considered beautiful?
Yes, an "ugly" photo can still turn out to be beautiful. I think it would take a lot of work, but with the right amount of editing it can transform into something beautiful. For examle, this photo of really worn out shoes, to the point where the person's feet are sticking out and the ripped socks, tells you a lot in the photo. Is the person poor? Have they walked a long ways? How hard are their lives? Or is it just that it's there most favorite shoes? Imediately a ton of questions pop into your head. That is what makes it a great photo.
