Snippet from 1940!to chew on..
 Remember, only those who master the mechanics of photography can afford to "forget" it. Mastery of the mechanics of photography is, at best, only a means to an end. Idolatry of photographic technique has never produced masterpieces. Neither has the ability to draw curved or straight lines produced masterpieces of architecture or engineering. Mechanical competence is an important prerequisite-but not an achievement. Complete listing please see below:
