Does it specifically *say* somewhere in the books or in a JKR 
discussion, that *only* paintings' subjects can move about, from 
painting to painting? Does it *say* that photo subjects can not move 
from photo to photo, or from photo to painting? Or are we just to 
assume, since only the paintings' subjects have done it so far, that 
the photos' subjects can not? I am really curious about this one.
