"The moment always dictates in my work....Everybody can look, but they don't necessarily see....I see a situation and I know that it's right."
André Kertész

It is not uncommon refering to photography to find the idea that a photo is something above ( or beneath) discussion.
A photo accordingly to this idea cannot be defined, can only be appreciated without more investigation.
It is the idea that a photo gives its self explanation.
The fact however is that comments, specially when made by the author himself, throw a light on the work bringing the creation from the realm of irrationality.
The Kertesz's comment, for example, is of great help to understand his concept about photography and therefore better also understand and appreciate his work.

Tengo mantenido el esfuerzo de por medio de ipernity buscar aprofundizar la discusión sobre fotografia.
Los comentarios hechos, por ejemplo, en
https://www.test.ipernity.com/doc/80685/5023150/in/group/91535
y muchos otros em REVIEWED PHOTOGRAPHY tienen este proposito.
Puedo observar que tienes también esta preocupación.
Quizás se pueda, con el tiempo, tener resultados más consistentes con respecto al tema.
