There is as much difference in the meaning of the words tone and tones as there is in the words nerve and nerves. - Arthur Hammond

...picture-making is almost entirely a matter of good taste, and that is largely instinctive when the taste has been trained and cultivated.

A painter, by the skilful use of color, can make idyllic pictures in which a figure or a group of figures is not the dominant thing in the picture, but for a photographer this is more difficult.

So photography, having a place among artistic processes, has its own distinguishing quality which cannot be duplicated by any other medium.
