This seems to be an never-ending story...

Indeed. So I will be very short this time.
Anyway, for me (most of) my arguments stay valid, although some of them can be interpreted the other way.
The most important principle for me is : a photo should show only things that were really there. Otherwise it's fake.
I heard several times the word "art". Well, I'm not an artist when photographing. 
I just want good images of my minerals, with as little effort as possible.
