[Leica] PESO: bad photo? - just print it big

[Nathan Wajsman]

Guys, I think you both missed the point of my posting. Of course Monk was a genius. That is not what I questioned. His statement is sarcasm, a joke. But when it comes to photography, size seems to do the trick, I will never forget a photo by Sherman I once saw—just some puke on the ground, not even sharp. But because it was printed HUGE, it was apparently considered Art and was hanging in an art gallery. Emperor’s new clothes and all that.

Cheers,
Nathan
