Actually, the number of magazines in publication is growing, despite our  
online world. I forget where I read that, but the point was that people like 
the  
feel of a magazine in hand. The convenience of being able to flip to a page 
or  article easily. The ability to flop back on a rainy Sunday afternoon, 
read 
or  peruse a bit while waiting for the couch monster kidnap the reader to  
snoozeland. Of course, one can do that with a laptop, but a magazine 
performs  
the inevitable off-belly dismount more quietly and with less expensive  
consequences.     

I'm thinkin' photographers will  require whatever magazines demand.
