Photography is light-writing, the language of images. Less abstract than written or spoken language, it selects images from the existing world of appearances and arranges them in patterns. The camera-eye doesn't think, it recognizes. It shows us what we already know, but don't know that we know.
Its syntax is less constrained than its grammar, so the way images are put together is important.

You've put scientific knowledge into poetic form, A bit over-heard, but ...nice.
A habit of mine in writing while watching films and one should pause the film in order to be able to write!
Each single paused frame is something I can call a photograph, and admire, really.
So, don't you think there should be some new aesthetics, maybe I can say...some other subjective definition for photography?
Or maybe it's that frozen moment that attracts us, yes, maybe.
Or...should I say still photography with photo cameras, is departing the world?
Very sad to admit, I disagree with myself.
