Sharpness is a bourgeois concept.
Photography remains the only medium that literally captures a moment
in time. Think about it: nothing else does that!
As such, it will always be intriguing and valuable to us.
What is it exactly that makes you (or anyone else) think that it's

My first computer was an Apple ][. Great computer. I loved it. I
learned Basic, Pascal, Assembler and even a bit of machine language
