The Spaces In Between

The Spaces In Between


One of the photography websites recently had an interesting item about whether, given the billions of photographs which are taken each second (yeah, I've forgotten the numbers, but it's a lot), it is still possible to take an original photograph. Their conclusion was no, it isn't, but it is possible for each of us as individuals to take a particular photograph for the first time. My conclusion is that it depends how abstract you're prepared to go (in my opinion not much or you're doing digital art rather than photography). Take snowdrops. Is it possible to take an original photograph of Galanthus nivalis? Probably not.
