<p>[QUOTE="John Conduitt, post: 4608909, member: 109923"]Surely it's like the difference between going to the pyramids and seeing a photo of them. The photo will look better, with perfect blue sky, and no tourists or traffic in the background. It serves a purpose and might look good on the wall. Actually going to the pyramids, though, gives you a truer sense of what they are. You feel the history, you get perspective, you get to touch them. If I say they are 'better in person', I mean how they make you feel, flaws and all, even if they didn't look more perfect than in the photo.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
