I believe that the lifestyle of the photographer in Blow Up was modeled
after that of the British photographer David Bailey. As for "anyone who
knows anything about photography", I would defer to Antonioni on the subject
still or cine!  Images are images.  Alain Resnais produced a striking photo
book, "Reportages" I think it's called.
