I think maybe that “artists” that hung nothing up but empty frames for their exhibition recently has the right idea.. maybe the only “pure art” is the experience… :-P

Great article. Love your thoughts, and totally agree with them. I get very annoyed at the comments “oh you’ve got a fancy camera”, or “that must be a really good lens”. The photographer is never truly credited for their work. I’m a fan of post-processing, technology has just changed the way we do it these days. Oh, and for the record, HDR is not my cup of tea either :)
