Surely, you jest.  I am lucky, I admit. I live in a country where 
those types of images are not common.  However, when photography or 
art or whatever can elicit an emotional response, and attract a 
person's attention then the job of the creator of that image is 
accomplished.

If you insist on calling these photographs snapshot, then maybe you 
can agree they are some very good snapshots.  I also think that 
calling these photographs snapshots cheapens your remarks and your 
opinion greatly in my eyes, and in many other people's eyes on this 
board.
