Hello,
Was just reading a bit of OoTP during the weekend and thought of these things:
Portraits:
Fat Lady, Sir Cadogan, Sirius's mom, Phineas Nigellus and all other Hogwarts
headmasters are quite aware of what's happening around and live just via
portraits.
So, why didn't Harry ever consider getting a portrait of his parents or even
Sirius? Nick said Sirius would have gone on and will not be back as a ghost. Is
this applicable to portraits too? If yes, does that mean that DD has not gone
on?
Photographs:
CoS: Harry is trying to move out of the frame in Lockhart's photograph
OoTP: Percy walks out of Mr Weasley's family photograph at his office
DH: DD looks dolefully at Harry and Hemione from his photograph in the Life and
Lies of DD book
Flitting in and out of a photograph is one but reflecting current emotions of
the real-life counter part is another. Does this mean that photographs capture
more than the picture and are "connected" to the real-life counterparts?
Are there any canon evidences that can answer my queries? Share them, please!
:-)
Cheers,
~Joey :-)
