after John R Neeson—River Bend Installation
To create an algorithm that measures beauty—compose, illuminate, expose

or fill the birdbath for firetails descending when heat goes out of the sun
Use human annotations to classify emotional polarity of each image

or stroke the backbone of a young fern spooling from the under-storey
Whether positive or negative assess originality compared to others

or say sorry to the old wattle, sap bleeding out through torn skin   
Race, gender and age are largely uncorrelated with photographic beauty

so situate blue salvia next to desert gaura behind white iris as in a Monet 
Females are more memorable, brighter and post-processed Colour hangs in the heart

Aesthetic score relates to sharpness of facial landmarks     The promise of a river
Men smile less than women                at the end or beginning of a journey

A common or garden point-and-shoot will have this facility inbuilt   Smile
