...and another distinction between photography and painting:
No matter how much painters tell us their painting is about light, it is first and last about brush strokes.
No matter how much I look for textures to give my photographs a painterly feel, they are first and last about light.
Does this distinction mean that painters can't play on photographers' turf and photographers can't shoot on painters' courts, or does it help define a line of tension across which photographers and painters play their sport? Just wondering.
