  Where does he tell him this?  I don't remember Colin saying anything about
  cameras in CoS....but I have the American version.
  To keep this on-topic, I always thought that the wizard photos were a
little
  like Diary!Riddle.  They know who they are but they're only a memory of
the
  person, like a home movie of you and your friends from where you were
little.
  I don't think cutting the picture up would hurt them, because they could
  always move.  But I think this is one of those things we'll never find
out...

she
  is what everyone always tells her she is - pure evil.)

  The notion of memory in a picture or painting is very intriguing.  It's
obvious that a painted person has some aspect of memory to them, after al
the Fat lady remembers Passwords to the Common room.  And if, given that,
photographs retain a memory, wouldn't a picture in a room where a major
crime occurred be accountable as a witness.  Just to narrow this a little
further, would pictures on the walls of a little house in Godric Hollow have
a story to tell about what happened one lonely Halloween night.
