I liked this article so much, I decided to post it to my blog!

Here is a great article by Brett and Kate McKay that stresses the importance of studying the context of a photo.  Specifically ownership and time period.  Without studying these variables, the photos in the article would present a much different “picture” than what was intended.

Enjoy!
