Jim asks: >So you don't think nature photography has reaped great >rewards in the arts? I happen to think it has. This wasn't my point at all. It would be foolish to deny that nature photography is big business. Galleries, magazines, workshops... It's obviously huge. It would be equally foolish to deny that Weston, say, showed the world a new way of seeing a landscape. He did, and this is something only a truly great artist can achieve. I was more concerned with photography's unique strengths. There's no substitute for photojournalism or documentary photography, 19th century newpaper etchings and 21st century courtroom sketch artists not withstanding. --John ===== J.
