well, i don't have any concrete evidence, sorry. but i think we can
assume that photos mainly don't move around much, snapshots of the
moment as they are. they didn't seem to have done so in Harry's photo
album of his parents, for example. i assume more 'soul' or magic
substance has gone into creating the paintings, giving them more life
and character.
