Nope.  Gotta agree with Bob on this one.  The difference between
photography and painting is quite clear.  Photography (in this sense)
is an image derived from the momentary capture of light on an
electronic or chemical sensor.  Painting is the application of
chemical substance on a surface.  The fact that the results can
sometimes look somewhat similar in no way makes the processes
analogous.

It kind of reminds me of the difference between sending a television
image from one place to another, as opposed to teleporting that same
object.  Like in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.  Or Star Trek.
They're two different concepts entirely, and can't be confused
(although Willie Wonka confused them).

cheers,
frank
