An unmanipulated photo is the record of a brief stop and blink on the train 
of time at a particular moment and place and view, be the technology of that 
blink film or digital, the medium B&W or color. Once the exposure is made, 
we 
can not back the train of time up to take the same blink. The resultant 
image 
isn't a memory or a vision or anything fanciful. It is a visual testiment 
that 
can be made intellible to others who will succeed us or who are our 
contemporaries.
