Subject: [Leica] Is photography art?

In the past there seemed to have been a consensus that Norman Rockwell's
work was corny campy and low brow but in the past decade he's found a new
appreciation in the art world. He's fairly well respected now I think.

George Lincoln Rockwell still not good. The guy who shot and killed him
spent five minutes in a federal penitentiary.

Nikon Rockwell has been admitting he prefers Canons and shooting jpegs with
uv filters with no lens hoods.. But is leaving his starving family out of
it.  Google loves his website.
