A photo, as the subjective and limited form of representation of the world,
it is always subject to whose apprehension who observe it.

Photo cannot be accepted like a trustful portrait of the reality. It is only an instant kept on a film or turned into digits.

The capture of this short space of time is influenced by the choice of the angle, of the position, of the distance and obviously by the intensity of light
as well as the quality of the lenses that will catch the image.

Therefore the photography owes to be freed of this rancid idea of pseudo-realism in which it is involved.

Avoid this harmless attempt to be a register. Only so the photo can demand
for itself the attribute of art.
