Touchy Subject

I saw this ad when I was browsing a photography website. And it brought back to mind the trite debate of Photography being art. Nothing irks me more than someone disregarding all of photography as art. Its not an illustration, or a painting, but its not the media which truly defines whether something is art but the meaning it has. Although the photo in the ad is crap, so maybe it wasn't art until they applied that awful filter to it. Actually, its still not art, or at least not good art...
