i've always thought shoot implies portability...i'm sure Ken never shot
pictures with his 1890s Pierce, rather he exposed plates, or "burned"
them on more casual occasions
in all seriousness, this is actually an interesting topic...Ken's
academic perspective lends to a notion of integrity for a craft that
struggled to establish and maintain legitimacy in the art world and,
ultimately enjoyed significant popularity in the amateur marketplace at
the hands of creative marketing and consumer technology...Eastman's use
of onomatopoeia really got that ball rolling
