Hi again, KTOWERS3!
I too, am a moderator and have merged your three, separate posts into one. Having some sort of advanced status on this site is something that can come about with time because of the way that a person addresses questions and how peers and the administrators think about the way that a person has also answered questions.
When you started this thread, I thought about moving it to the Philosophy forum topic area of the site, but decided to leave it here. I also thought that we had resolved the debatable, and highly dependent on a person's definition, issue of photography being art or not.
As such, if you would like to post questions that are philosophical in nature, I would suggest that you do so in the
Philosophy forum topic area of this site.
Thread is now
CLOSED.
Thank you.
