Thanks Tony. It's been interesting to be in a situation where I really want to take a photos, while knowing that there will be no second chances. There are any number of babies in the world, but these two will be five minutes old but once.(posted 8435 days ago)I don't like rankings per se - it's the process of constructing them that I find interesting, not the final result - but my own photography is usually aimed at documenting my life and the things I find interesting, and it is hard to think of events with a similar significance.
I have a photographic memory, and have always thought of images seperately from their physical representation, so the abstraction of the online world already seems natural to me. Also, the ease with which I can use my website to distribute a whole photo album to literally hundreds of friends and family around the world is a massive practical advance. But, and I think it is a but which applies generally, the physical presentation of a real print still adds something extra, just as live performances are more than recordings.
