Did I say it looked like a painting?

quoting myself : "I clicked it large, and rolled my chair a yard from  
the screen, as I would move in a museum before a painting I like -  
this photo is great Mariela :-)"

I used the word painting in my simile (as I ... like), and "photo" for  
Mariela's contribution I think.

I can't see what the isue is here, honest :-(

But your question remains, co-substantial with the origins of modern  
(oil) painting (Hockney's theory), and later, those of photography as  
we know it.
