Ambiguity

‘Photographs are ambiguous.  Their truths are at best partial, their interpretations myriad….inclusion of sharply rendered and selectively chosen detail amplifies the uncertainty.  …. “A photograph is a secret about a secret.  The more it tells you the less you know.”’  Diane Arbus Portrait of a Photographer, Arthur Lublow, Jonathan Cape 2016, pp218-219.
