Very thoughtful article! Your story of the lunch with the futurist was very interesting. You're mostly focused on photo journalism - what about other kinds of photography? fine art, commercial: portrait, wedding, etc? Once back in the late 1990s art directors used to send text to typesetters, get back galleys that artists sliced up to surround images at ad agencies...there were folks with mad skills using Xacto knives.... Nothing like a photographer and their skills, but just an observation on the evolution of technology and markets. Also back then folks thought digital could NEVER replace film.
