Whatever you say! My comment was made in the context of photography. As we should have learned from recent events, context is important to understanding. -- Peter

Exactly how does your claimed black radiation affect fine art photography? -- Peter

Higher thermal energy driven deeper into the camera faster will also cause much more noise on any digital camera sensor. Black coated metal was okay for film photography, the higher temperatures only shortened the retention of the image on the film (or caused haze if in great excess), it didn't induce more grain. But for digital photography black metal is the worst possible option. "Pros" who pushed for "Pro Black" on digital cameras have never been too intelligent. They're just blind following peer-pressured apes trying to impress the next guy without ever thinking about what they are really doing. Monkey see, monkey do.

But, your argument is getting downright silly, (in the British use of the word.) I repeat, the context of my remarks has consistently been photography. I shall be delighted to discuss Hawkins, Einstein, black hole theory and its effect on gamma particles, quantum computing or relativity. But not in this forum. Here I am a pragmatist, not a theorist. -- Peter |
