To paraphrase Landor.  A still photograph of a single moment in time is
like a single note in music that means nothing without the notes that
come before and the notes that come after.

A movie sequence can be compared to a symphany.  A still photograph to
a toot on a car horn.

Paraphrase?  More like a butchery.  Sorry Landor.
