Pictures can be helpful, but one must be aware that they are not always
so. One needs experience taking pictures that will yield useful
information, cameral angles can make things deceiving that would be
straightforward if one were looking at it in real life. Colors are also
not always accurate, depending on the quality of the camera, the
source and quality of the light used in the picture. One also needs
experience interpreting pictures and knowing just what information can
be gleaned from them and what can't. So, pictures can be helpful, but
some caution is advised.
This would be a great thing to have a session on at an ILCA meeting or
conference. I'm sure there are some people who have experience using
pictures, who could offer some pointers for the photographers and the
interpreters.
