Ben, I wasn't trying to steal your thunder if I restated your position, and wasn't aiming my comments at anyone in particular. Just reading and "swyping" on my phone as well, and not about to try and quote or go back over with a fine-toothed comb (that last post took me about 20 minutes to hammer out). I'm really just a little surprised by all the sentiments that the Type system is so open-ended/subject to personal interpretation, and that every photo must be able to have a Type assigned to it. A response of "a Type classification simply isn't possible and/or appropriate for that piece" should always be an acceptable response. It doesn't make what you have any more or less desirable than it would be without the Type classification, and in those cases, you simply have to use a few more words to describe what it is.

Polite corrections for unidentified and misidentified photos appreciated. Rude corrections also appreciated, but less so.
