Wolfgang,
Yes, we've come to a new era that allows more of us to easily express ourselves and discover beauty everywhere.
Candlemaking was a pretty impressive art too, however, in most circumstances, the electric light has made candle light just for romantic diversion. Today, photography has allowed art to be made without having to acquire motor skills and experience in building an image out of brush strokes.
I still admire the painter, but appreciate the ability to capture beauty as in this flower, just in one press of the camera shutter!
