We tend to forget that reality isn't the same for the photographer and the viewer and the only pure reality is the one that was unseen. Everything in photography, from its very beginning, is a matter of choice and, thus, a interpretation of the reality. Only honestity counts, no matter if it's prepared artsy stuff or serious documentary photography. just an opinion. Saludos ----------------------------------------- http://imaginarymagnitude.net/blog/
