I whole-heartedly agree with all the comments! It truly IS the person behind the camera that makes the decision to capture a specific moment in time...whatever that maybe! The photography is the catalyst, pressing the shutter button, causing a reaction. We are seeing images from everyones viewpoints these days and the camera is the tool of choice to accomplish this "feat". I think with the advent of digital photography, the artistic side of many has blossomed! It enables us to experiment and try things we probably would not have tried in the past. There is always a "jump on" point where technology is concerned and we have to start somewhere. For most of us that was a point & shoot...as we OUT GROW the limitations of a camera, its easy to get wrapped up in some of the more technical aspects of a given camera. Tech changes so quickly, it is "instilled" in us to crave more! It overlaps with the other tools we use like computers and software! Do we REALLY utilize ALL the power of these tools, do we constantly need to upgrade...more harddrive space to accommodate all those images and the new software updates? Its sort of a vicious circle! In the end though it is the PERSON, who used WHATEVER tools they have avaialble in their arsenal...to create...works of ART!
