Yes, most definately Photography is a true form of Art
No, I don't view Photography as a true form of Art

So your whole arguement can be summed up by saying that because a photograph can happen in a split second, it's not art?

I have a Pentax and I'm not afraid to use it.

My Photography
I don't think art is made as art due to the laborious nature of the particular work.
There's no rule or requirement that art must be produced over time .. it's just that some arts can only be created in this manner due to their inherent nature .. or scale.
Photography just happens to be one of those arts that doesn't really necessitate the passage of long periods of time.
And I don't remember any rule that luck can't feature as a fundamental aspect in the creation of art either.
This photographer that goes back to this one location is hugely dependent on luck to produce his vision of that place. If not, then he'd not continually be going back there to capture his vision.
The element of luck in this instance is that he is hoping that the conditions will be just right one day so that the scene will be the way he hope it to be.
There's nothing wrong with that .. it may never transpire in his lifetime that those conditions will ever be met .. or that they will be in only one brief moment in time and that he needs to be there for this specific instant.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with that either ... it's just the way it it.

Is that an art form? Maybe it can be my life's workConverting 'em one at a time, eh Jim?
Pro Hart created paintings very quickly, sometimes in an instant using a cannon (not to be confused with a canon)
Mind you, elements of the art world criticised Pro for being prolific; but to me he was always trying something new.
To him it was always experimental and he could not care less what people thought.
Some photos a processed for hours to produce the final image.
So I don't think the time taken to produce the work is that relevant.

Good news for famous photographers or those managing their estates. Feeling the money pinch? That's ok, just print more 'limited' editions of art!
