I think that's why I prefer not using the word image interchangeably with photograph. Image can be painting, sketch, any sort of illustration, what's on your television screen, movie screen, whatever.

So, yes, a photograph is an image. Your transportation analogy is a good one, Rob.

I ~never~ say, "I'm going to take my transportation over to your place", I say I'll take my bike.

So, why do so many do that with the word "image"? Why are camera shops suddenly becoming "Imaging Centres"? <shudder>

To my mind they are all images, like ship/plane/cars are transport.
