Hi Ted,
with all due respect, some people have long had a different approach, 
even though yours is down to earth and also founded.
Douglas Sharp posted this link a while ago and I think it puts things 
into another perspective (thanks again Douglas).

Now, as to the initial question i.e. lousy photo vs powerful document, 
my answer in that precise instance is yes.
Mood and picture quality match quite well, and the series associated ith 
the comments convey a deep sense of 'mute' despair.
My reading of it all, of course.

Amiti?s
Philippe
