How do you judge your photos?

Yeah that pretty much describes my judgement of my photos as well most of the time, and has been the case for over 40 years. So with a critical eye is what I will have to say. If you are a perfectionist then you will never be satisfied with what you do.

The sad life of mine lol. I'm a complete perfectionist, and I can second never being satisfied with your photos.
As for how i critique my photos, I always look at it as, what was good, what was bad, and how could I improve the photo.

Friends and family can be deceiving though. Usually they'll support you even if you suck
