I understand your point, Bob, and it makes perfect sense. You are right - viewing the work on a computer screen and viewing it in a gallery are certainly going to influence the perception. I think part of my curiosity about the photographer's work and my desire for more information could come from me wanting to know more about the photographer/artist, and I think I will learn more about him or her by the information given concerning the work. Hmmm. Now you've got me thinking and that's hard work.
