This is very interesting to me. Thanks for answering.
However, If the photo was just 'out there in front of us' all photographers would be essentially equal. The mule dragger with Ansel Adams on his treks thru Yosemite would be just as famous. I know.....Zone System.....
I do have a serious question. In a clinical situation where subjects are shown both photography AND serious art, does the same part of the brain 'light up' when viewing? Without knowing the answer I'd submit that it is the result that counts and the appreciation thereof. I would further suggest you CAN compose the photo. Point of view, lens choice, framing choice, film choice (old days) along with the physical controls of aperture and shutter speed, producing, with focal point the net focus / depth effect desired. I'm even able to do abstracts, usually of mundane things.
Painters and other fine artists manipulate these in their head while a photographer has to move around and is confronted with all the aforesaid choices....and more.
It is also interesting to me when photography and the visual arts cross paths. I've done photography for both media artists....one in particular used paint rollers.....and another glass artist which I am particularly proud of. I can without much trouble produce a reasonable oil painting in Photoshop. I'm not good at it, but have played. Maybe somebody that's real good could fool you from 5 feet away?
I've taken photographs both from center out and edge in. Finding an interesting natural frame than seeing what's in it VS finding something of interest and figuring out if it can be framed. Such a process usually goes too fast for me to analyze. If you photograph weddings, you know how true THAT can be. I was once given 15 minutes (no joke or exaggeration) to take some formal shots on the cliffs overlooking LaJolla Cove, here in SouthernCalifornia.
Enjoy and some interesting thoughts. thanks for sharing.
Too much is never enough
