Do you feel comfortable sharing your photos ?

it may be a deception, it is easy to deceive with words, but it is impossible to deceive with a photograph - I think so..

Huh? Photographs have been 'faked' since the 1840s. ???

Impossible? Really?

five photographers take pictures of one event - all five will have different meanings and interpretations of the event - this is true, but looking at five photographs of five events by one photographer, I can already draw a conclusion about the photographer himself.

in photography there is 15-20% of the direct meaning of the theme and 80% of the photographer’s interpretation of it.
And the better the photographer, the more ocean there is in the pebble near the water photographed by him.

I was not referring to expressive interpretation.

Photographs that faked a person, scene, or situation intentionally have been around since the beginnings of Photography. It's why proper provenance and credentials are essential to photographs intended for forensic and documentation purposes.

What a beautiful metaphor.
