True, subjectivity certainly enters into whether any particular image 
appeals to us personally or not.

subjectivity: judgment based on individual personal impressions and feelings 
and opinions rather than external facts

However, looking at an image with objectivity attempts to determine if it 
has merit outside of our subjective vision.

objectivity: judgment based on observable phenomena and uninfluenced by 
emotions or personal prejudices

One's own subjectivity is the bane of photographers that are trying to excel 
and have widespread appeal, whereas objectivity helps them achieve it.
