"Digital photography allows for no mistakes by the camera," Shaw says.
"The picture is flawless, and you are the only one to blame for its
apparent ugliness. But with film, you never really know what's going to
happen. It's a surprise every time you develop and print your film.
Sometimes there can be weird color granulations, random light splotches
or double exposures."


Photography and the camera signal the demise of real art: oil
painting.

Real Art is in the eye of the beholder. In my view it includes Oils,
watercolours, pastels, charcoals, pen and ink, pencils, all forms of
sculpture, music and photography. There is a lot that I don't like but
that is my view and does not mean that it is not art.

As an example I like classical music (also some other forms) but detest a
great deal of modern pop. but still think it is an art form, just not to
my taste.
