Umm so what you are saying Lew is that NO photography is art because non of it will last under normal condition for more then a century in non degraded format. Are you stoned?
If you are trying to save trees (which by the way I have no idea what that has to do with art since only very few type of fine art use paper) why are you a photographer? You don't print any of your work and store on in power sucking computer systems?
