hundred reasonably well executed pix
of birds, bugs, flowers, trees, sunsets
and other brik-a-brak that will never
induce any feelings. Does that mean
NO photo can EVER induce feelings ?
Are photographers all just catalogers,
amateur botanists, etc etc ? Certainly
they can fall into that, but I doubt it's
the fate of every practitioner. Skill at
camera work is just a competence at
a craft. Someone with something to
say can practice a craft ... writing or
music or illustration or whatever ...
and actually induce feelings in their
audiences. There's evidence of it all
throughout history ... including a few
sprinkled into the pages linked above.
