One reason for this is perhaps the rather introverted personalities of most photographers, who generally employ understated styles and who keep their distance from the kinds of arguments that make literature, painting, and film perennial topics of conversation.
推究其因，一方面是攝影家普遍較「內向」的性格，使他們的作品風格與表達方式，因而趨向「婉順」與「規避」，很少站到「第一線」上，為主張爭辯而引發話題；與文學、繪畫或電影的強悍直率，有一段「觀望」的距離。
