During the film days, I finally came around to the conclusion that pinhole and Krappy Kamera photos actually much better expressed the way I saw the world, especially as I was getting older and my eyes weren't what they used to be. I think the 'straight' photography propaganda has been much too powerful in the photo community.

A photograph is too brutal, too exact, the eye/brain combo ignores the plop of bird-shit, the athlete's grotesque grimace of effort, the electric lines...<br />perhaps I'll develop the idea more later, dig out my notes... basically, almost NO photographs represent what we see... no, they don't represent what we PERCEIVE, which is what it's all about...stone sealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08285111419079958362noreply@blogger.com
