Well said, Godfrey.

I well remember a heated argument I had with a fellow teacher along those lines many years ago. He was adamant that photography could never be art. One could even argue about the type of brush & paint used! And what if the "artist" had to wear glasses?

If you want to put a simple limitation on "what is art" to say that it must be made by 
human hands, well, that is just fine … but most photographs will then be marginally not-art since 
we already rely upon a whole range of machines, of varying levels of "intelligence", to 
produce our photographs.
