Reading an old issue of PopPhoto (jan 80) I found the following text: "...I've always said that the negative is the score and the print the performance. I want it to be possible for people in the future to perform my negatives. After all, when I was playing the piano, I was playing the music of people who had been dead for quite a few hundred years and who had never heard the sounds of my modern piano - they had written for the harpsichord, the clavichord. I actually feel that in the next few years -it won't be very long - the electronic image is really going to be the medium in photography." It makes me think... Ah, and these are Ansel Adams' words who would never give up composing... ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris <nimbo@ukonline.co.uk> To: List for Photo/Imaging Educators - Professionals - Students <photoforum@listserver.isc.rit.edu> Sent: Thursday, June 06, 2002 3:00 PM Subject: Return to Digital > Hi, > > After forsaking digital a few years I have sold my medium format gear in > part exchange for an Olympus E20p.
