The moon landing is a bit of the opposite - the video images sent back that day aren't as compelling as the Hasselblad "HD" stills.

Everything changes it has to, its all, we are al,l energy. And energy shifts.Big quantum leaps perhaps? yup! We need to trust, show up and flow with the changes making decision that seem right for us... my 2 cents:) Photography is not dead:):):) morphing maybe.Into what ?we don’t know.We never did before and still dont.
