Has anyone considered that photons may not "exist" until observation? IE the EM wave travels outwards from it's source as a normal wave, with the photons only appearing when the wave interacts with matter. In such a case I wonder how gravitation affects a propagating wave front, and if it's any different than "photons as little bullets". Especially once the flux is so low that the average distance between photons would be much larger than their wavelength.
