Posting that here would be off-topic and would also ruin the entire point of storymilo's new thread. That sort of cruelty is just not within my capacity.

The painting or photograph is meant to evoke the imagination, it not meant to be a objective experience but a subjective particiption in which the artist allows you to become an artist in veiwing his art by giving you some senario in which you fill in all the other details left out of the photograph. It also does what many people wish for that is to freeze time, to let a moment linger a little longer, to capture clearer an event that would become a vague memory dulled through the passage of time.
A very lovely description of the evokative function of a photograph or painting, Neapolitan: a photograph is like a play whose actors talk about events that happen off screen. I like your analogy very much. We should probably move our discussion to the photography or art thread to discuss more, though!

I don't mind at all, or course...and agree with you that voting is like imperfect Xerox copies of the photograph-posts! You see...I really do like the way you think and write.
