perhaps this is useful:

Subject: censoring the sensors ???
Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2004 21:49:35 -0600
I prefer what the eye really does see as opposed to photography where what
is 'unsightly' is omitted.
disagree !!!
there is no opposition or contradiction between photography and eye vision,
on the contrary. a complementarity, generally speaking. some enhancement. a
kind of tricky bzness
As you wrote, certainly the "unseen" in a pict can sometimes be necessary
to
understand better some situation,
but the same could be said about what you have in your visual field when
reading this post. seeing your screen you can't see something elsewhere,
out of that precise field of perception.
Do you (we) need the unseen to understand what you (we) see ? (It could
become a religious matter , there !)
in some picts you feel or sense there are unseen objects related to the
showed result.
(take, as a fast example, a car crash where a tree not "seen" is printed
into the windshield)
(reproduced or in-pressed in the steel debris as kind of gigantic typo
lettering)
if we have two eyes focusing, generally, in front of us, the two sensors
can't see backwards if you don't turn your head backwards too , so the
unsight will always be next, or there, (to be eventually pictured later,
if the roll isn't finished or the battery is still charged).
but let's keep talking on about what the human/animal eyes really do see,
or
the snakes feel with their infrared sensors or the bats with some
ultrasounds... and fish with their lateral chain of echolocators/sensors...
or Hubble telescope with gamma sensors or X-Ray magnetometry or the
like.......
living creatures can feel without sensing. (feel pretty, sorry or
crazy...)(
but then from their inside)
but senses need external feeling.
a perception.
bromure need the same to be blackening the silver in a gelatin base.
just some photonic energy.
