The Elements of Photographic Art?

[Stanley Edwards]

Photography is about the detail.

Bollocks. It's rude. You said so yourself. You should have just bought a camera phone

BTW; 8 new manufacturers of MF digital sensors appeared in the last month!

8!

8? Wow! It's the future, man

I just bought myself a rolleicord - does it mean I'm defunct now?

 

[Stanley Edwards]

8? Wow!

Yes. 8!

Old MF mechanicals are the future

But them now whilst you still can

8!

Indeed. I'd quite like a Hasselblad 500 c/m next. Got any cash lying around Stanley?

What you paid for your Ricoh would have bought a mint 503!

A Hassie ain't gonna fit in my pocket though is it?

I'm very happy with my choice of using both digital and film - and all your bellyaching ain't gonna make me change my mind

So, what is the fundamental factor that defines photography as a unique art form?

I mean, paintings OK innit? Good in fact but, what makes photography better?

BTW; Bigger pocket = more room for your Hassie

Nah. I've seen real people wear them. It's not nice. You have to be undoubtedly beautiful to get away with it. I'm not. Maybe you are

I dont see how photography is *unique* from any other art form?

It's just as valid as any other, but no more or less.

I suppose it documents without lies a bit more maybe, but even photos can be doctored.

Is documentary photography 'art'?

Photography is unique. Obviously. But, why? you have anything worthwhile to say?
