> How can a camera be digital if it doesn't have fingers? Un(cle)Bob Digital photography has stuck 10 fingers up to the concept of an honest image. With digital the concepts of truth and lie have no meaning as at last there is no difference, no trace ... No artist's statement, however detailed, however long winded, can ever remove that doubt.
