[Leica] In a exhibition

[Lluis Ripoll]

Ken,

Thank you for your opinion.

About your comment I want comment that I’m not agree about the use of the term “like” in art, IMHO art is always subjective and nobody can affirm that such work is better than another, at least I never say this, I always say “I like more this one”, even in the case that somebody says “this is the best xx….” I absolutely dislike such strong affirmations, somebody can say “I prefer …” or “I like better…”.

About the MM, I agree what John says and I would add too some words that Tina has said long time ago, with the MM your mentality is directly focused in B&W, it is like have a B&W film, on the other hand the grey tones and dynamic range is more extended

Cheers
Lluis

We were told never to use the term "like" in evaluating art, along with other things guaranteed to destroy any interest you may have in art.  Then on to music appreciation etc.  But, heresy, I like the first.  A little more mystery perhaps.
