That's why the example is absurd. Forensic photography seems to me to be a very straightforward example of photography as communication. You're trying to communicate *what the crime scene was like*, aren't you? Sometimes in regard to very specific details. It's not much of *anything* like artistic photography, of course, or even good photojournalism. But I don't think the lack of an element of communication has much to do with the differences. It's more a difference of *what* is being communicated, and where it comes from. -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:dd-b@xxxxxxxx>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://noguns-nomoney.com/> <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/> <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/>
