Rand the best art in the world is staged. Would you say to Botticelli that his art is to staged? How do you feel about ManRay's work? Why do people feel that a photo has to be reportage or a portrait or a landscape.
How do you feel about Joyce Tenesson's light warriors? Or pretty much everything by James Porto.

Interesting choice, Randy. A true classic, to be sure, but a bit too staged to be on my personal “Top 10” list. Still, perhaps it is that staging that seems to make it a perfect fit for your online persona. J
Thanks for bringing it back to mind.
