A moratorium isn't a bad idea, but what would we do to while away those idle hours? (ha ha ha)

Certainly it's not an "either - or" proposition. Good thoughts, Marvin, on the subjectivity, and relativity of those things we like to latch onto.

I think bubbling enthusiasm for the very real benefits of working from the life led to a "compartmentalized" conclusion that photography has no place at all. It's even easier to bash photos when there seems to be such a dependence on them among painters . . . especially novices.

There are some really good thoughts voiced in this thread!
