Philosophy of Photography Taking pics is one thing, but understanding why we take them, what they mean, what they are best used for, how they effect our reality -- all of these and more are important issues of the Philosophy of Photography. One of the best authors on the subject is Susan Sontag in her book "On Photography."

About TRADITIONAL

I bought an M 8 and Digilux 3 because my ASdee can't cope with a modern DSLR interface .. not to mention kinda not seeing them as ''camera ''

OK , an extreme situation of mind blindness , but I can't really call the shutter dial / aperture ring mode '' traditional '' , because , not withstanding it's long survival , my 30 odd year old daughter , and , I suspect , most new photographers would consider a Nikon D 300 etc , or my Pentax K 10 D , of compact digital camera to be '' traditional '' ...

Makes me wonder how rapidly it's all changing !
