ART

Can you describe what art is ... to you? It is not an easy request and should not lead to a controversy or dispute ...
I believe that ....
Art is all about knowing what to add, delete, or change in what we see with the naked eye, the camera's lens and subsequent photo, and perceived by our inner eye and mind. Whether we spend years or merely seconds to create an art work, what determines if it is art or not is if it not only catches our attention and interest, but it also lingers and provides a useful and beneficial consequence (either intended or unintended), a serendipitous change in the way we perceive the image, ourselves, and others in the community for a moment or infinity.
