Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose. They said (and still say) the same thing about Capa's shot militiaman. All I can say is that the people who think they are fakes cannot be real photographers. Real photographers see these great things all the time, but 99.999...% of us are just not quick enough to photograph them.
